Song for Canada

Song for Canada

G E / Am D7 G D7 / G E / Am D

How come we can't talk to each other any more?
Why can't you see I'm changing too?
We've got by far too long to end it feeling wronged
And I still share too much with you

     Em D / Em Am D / G E / Am D7 G

     Just one great river always flowing to the sea
     One single river rolling in eternity
     Two nations in the land that lies along its shore
     But just one river rolling free.

How come you shut me out as if I wasn't there
What's this new bitterness you've found?
However wronged you were, however strong it hurt
It wasn't me that held you down.

Why can't you understand I'm glad you're standing proud
I know you made it on your own
But in this pride you've earned, I thought you might have learned
That you don't have to stand alone

     Lonely northern rivers come together till you see
     One single river rolling in eternity
     Two nations in the land that lies along its shore
     But just one river, you and me
