Standard tuning

G                                  D
From the rollin fields of wheat, to the busy city streets
           Em7                   C9
There?s a feelin and a spirit all our own
        G                            D
True North, strong and free, stand on guard, you and me
           Em7                   C9
From the East, to the West we?ve roamed
                G
This is our home

G                                  D
From Norman Wells at the top, all the way to the Rock
           Em7            C9
There?s a wind thats always blown
           G                         D
From down Summerside to the Queen Charlotte Islands
           Em7                  C9
There?s a way of life we?ve always known
                 G                  C9
This is our home, this is our home

       G                                   D
I?ve seen the Northern Lights dancin over Yellowknife
      Em7                         C9
While standin in the middle of a field
         G                    D
From Pier 21 all the way to Flin Flon
           Em7                 C9
You gotta cross that Canadian shield
       G                                    D
And no one knows winter like we know winter
       Em7             C9
Blowin in off Lake Ontario
            G                         D
From the Ottawa Canal to Bonhomme Carnival
         Em7                         C9
There a little place I love in the Gatineau's
      Em7                                    C9
With a covered bridge and a swimmin hole
                        G               C9      D
Yeaaah this is our home, this is our home

            Em7                   D
Yeah from Portage and Main to Yonge and Queen

       G                            C9
And every street corner in between
      Em7                       D
No matter where you go, in this rugged land
      G                            C9
There?s on thing we all understand
      Em7                        C9
Every woman every child and man
               G
8:30 Newfoundland
               C9
(8:30 Newfoundland)
               G
8:30 Newfoundland

             G                                    D
Way up in Peace Country, down East in Kings County
       Em7                        C9
And clear across the Thunder Bay 
            G
Where Winnipeg feels like forever
        D
And Hope feels like never 
     Em7                          C9
Let alone out Campbell River way
(Play quietly)
        G                                                       D
And when you cross the boarder and you see a Caribou on the quarter
      Em7                          C9
Then and only then will you be home

                             G                                      D
I?ve driven from the Peg to the Chuck and Yankees call us Canucks
      Em7                          C9
But together, we?ll never stand alone 
         Em7                          C9
Yeah together, we?ll never stand alone
         Em7                          C9
Yeah forever, the Maple Leaf will be flown
                  G                            C9
Cause this is our home (this is our home)
                                 G
Yeaaah this is our home (this is our home)
                          C9
This is our home (this is our home)

Man this is our home

      G
Tar Sands and Fort Mac 
          D
Redwood Strands and Kitimat
                     Em7                            C9
(This is our home) and down on the Shuswaps too
       G                        D                             Em7                 C9
I?ve seen many night feelin like high noon from the Dome to Saskatoon
      G                                 D                
I?ve been snowed in for days on the Trans Canada Highway (This is our home)
       Em7                                 C9            G            D
And that was in the month of June 
              Em7                 C9            G
And this is our home
