about

Key of G

Verse 1:
G Am
I sing a lot about Toronto
C G
the city some call T.O
Am C
but I haven't been totally up front and it's time you know
G Am
some say Toronto is ugly
C G
have you seen it in the spring?
Am C
That when we discover how much trash the snow was covering

G Am
I could live in vancouver
C
but that's near Australia
G Am C
I could move to Montreal but mon francais nest pas tres formidable
G Am
I could be a Haligonian
C G
but I'd be lost at sea
Am C
and I have this vague thing called love for my friends and family

Chorus:
C G
Welcome to the city
where the
C G
racoon makes it's living and the
C G
lake is clean but most of us don't
Am B/C C
think that's true

Interlude:
G Am C



Verse 2:
G Am
I like to walk on the harbour front
C G
Thank you planners and tax
Am C
Though I find the core looks like it was designed by Goldman Sachs
G Am
they're gentrifying the west end
C
with fancy places to dine
G Am C
and though I just used the word "they're" I really meant I'm

Chorus 2:
C G
welcome to the daily grind show
C G
cheap living is hard to find though
C G
with time time I've found some good deals on
Am B/C C
take out food

C G
there's a 9 to 5er crossing
C G
paths with a bike rider and they
C G
both think they're the ones who have the
Am B/C C
right of way

Bridge:
A D
sometimes I dream about
A D
Living in a place
A D
where it doesn't take
G
15 minutes to explain how I feel about living there

Outro:
A D A E A D G End on A
