Verse
E
Rolling hills all covered in suede
DAE
I'm heat nervous and out of road
E
Downtown there's a parade
DAE
But I don't think I want to go
E
Smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie
DAE
I can speak my mother tongue
E
Passing laws, just because
DAE
And singing songs Of the English unsung
Chorus
DE
Well, how could you do it?
DE
Well, how could you even try?
DE
When you were born in the water
DE
And you were raised up in the sky?
Verse
E
Front seat stamped by the window
DAE
No erasees in this game
E
Arbitrary as the wind blows
DAE
It's another way to lay claim
E
Ain't no cause for bloodthirsting
DAE
In a little town so dry
E
Where the angels dance on a pinhead
DAE
Just to make room for you and I
Chorus
DE
Well, how could you do it?
DE
Well, how could you even try?
DE
When you were born in the water
DBE
And you were raised up in the sky?

Verse
E
Thoroughbred with their great big heads
DAE
Think a mile might be too far
E
Highway horses laugh but of course
DAE
When they don't know where the hell they are
E
Well, smart as trees in Sault Saint Marie
DE
Victorious mother tounge
E
Passing laws just because
DAE
And singing songs of the English unsung
Chorus
DE
Well, how could you do it?
DE
Well, how could you even try?
DE
When you were born in the water
D
And you were raised up
DE
Well, how could you do it?
DE
Well, how could you even try?
DE
When you were born in the water
DE
And you were raised up in the sky?
