Don’t want to stay here in this neon light
Don’t want to sit and talk to strangers all night
I saw this pretty girl yea she looked like you
Oh but all i wanna do
Is call you number, say I want you so bad, tell you you’re the best I ever had

Come pick me up tonight tonight tonight
We can drive it home with one headlight
I don’t need nothing but you by my side
Baby you got the keys i’ll take the passenger seat
Come pick me up tonight

Don’t wanna go back to that bed alone
Don’t wanna lay there frozen higher stone
I’m missing you missing me and how it all used to be
So get in your car and just leave

Come pick me up tonight tonight tonight
We can drive it home with one headlight
I don’t need nothing but you by my side
Baby you got the keys I’ll take the passenger seat

Come pick me up tonight yeah
Oh just pick me up

Come pick me up tonight tonight tonight
We can drive it home with one headlight
I don’t need nothing but you by my side
Baby you got the keys I’ll take the passenger seat
Come pick me up tonight

Come pick me up tonight (yea oooh)

D D/C# Bm G X2

I remember being [D/C#]all dressed underneath that old oak tree
The day we [D/C#]laid my grandpa down
For 13 years I’v[D/C#]e been his shadow, his little man
I was learning what [D/C#]hurt was all about
That was the first time[D/F#] I ever saw my daddy cry
And he said ‘Son,[D/F#] that’s the thing about life’

Yea, the rain’s gonna fall on us all Your heart’s gonna break sometimes
But there’s no way around it life’s full mountains You’re gonna have to climb
But there ain’t no crime in cryin[D/C#]g You just gotta keep on trying
So remember, no matter what you’re going through
Tough times don’t last Tough people do

Baby it’s bee[D/C#]n all smooth sailing since we fell in love
But lately we’ve be[D/C#]en on a rocky road
But if I know you like I [D/C#]think I do You ain’t giving up
And there ain’t no way in thi[D/C#]s world I’m letting go
Baby God put us together [D/F#] And He don’t make mistakes
Love is gonna be our shelter [D/F#]From whatever comes our way

Yea, the rain’s gonna fall on us all Your heart’s gonna break sometimes
But there’s no way around it life’s full mountains You’re gonna have to climb
But there ain’t no crime in cryin[D/C#]g You just gotta keep on trying
So remember, no matter what you’re going through
Tough times don’t last Tough people do

No there ain’t no crime in crying[D/C#] You just gotta keep on trying
So remember, no matter what you’re going through
Tough times don’t last Tough people do
Tough times don’t last Tough people [D/C#]do Tough people do

(Verse)
Round hair and blue eyes, I was skinny and six
I had second-hand skates and a new hockey stick
It was northern Alberta and nobody thought
That the kid from the farm would amount to a lot

(Verse)
Growing up how I did, well I knew how to work
So I practiced my first year’s guitar til I hurt
Now I travel around and they pay me to play
And when people ask me I’m so proud to say

(Chorus)
I’m a Canadian kid, born and bred
Have two boots, and to zed
Anywhere in this world that I may lay my head
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid

(Verse)
Now I sing everywhere and more that I see
The more that I know that I’m lucky to be
In a land where I’m sittin on top of the world
With my 5% beer and Canadian girls

(Chorus x2)
I’m a Canadian kid, born and bred
Have two boots, and to zed
Anywhere in this world that I may lay my head
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid
I’ll still always be a Canadian kid

Intro: |D | |A |Bm |D | |A | |
It’s friday night, moon’s like just hanging there

Ain’t too much going on anywhere
I picked her up, turned the radio up and kicked dust down the driveway
We didn’t make it more than a getaway mile
‘Til she put her pretty painted finger on the dial
And got every speaker in the backseat buzzin’
You could just tell that she loved it
There must be something in the airwaves
‘Cause every song the DJ plays
She leans a little bit closer in
Lets go of what she’s holding in
She’s dancing around like a lit flame
Hand out the window like an airplane
Maybe it’s the way she’s singing or swaying
Has got me thinking there must be something in the kick drum drumming
Must be something in the guitar strumming
She ain’t never looked at me that way
Must be something in the airwaves
A Bm |D | |A |Bm |
Must be something in the airwaves
She’s got a little let loose in her eyes
She’s turned up and turned on, hypnotized
I gotta get every bit of whatever it is
She’s feeling, ‘cause this feeling
Like I don’t ever wanna hear that signal fade
And I don’t wanna try to find another station

We got a little spot between the static
Working some kind of magic
There must be something in the airwaves
‘Cause every song the DJ plays
She leans a little bit closer in
Lets go of what she’s holding in
She’s dancing around like a lit flame
Hand out the window like an airplane
Maybe it’s the way she’s singing or swaying
Has got me thinking there must be something in the kick drum drumming
Must be something in the guitar strumming
She ain’t never looked at me that way
A |D | |A |Bm |
Must be something in the airwaves
There must be something in the airwaves
‘Cause every song that the DJ plays
She leans a little bit closer in
Lets go of what she’s holding in
She’s dancing around like a lit flame
Hand out the window like an airplane
Maybe it’s the way she’s singing or swaying
Thats got me thinking there must be something in the kick drum drumming
Must be something in the guitar strumming
She ain’t never looked at me that way
Must be something in the airwaves
There must be
There must be something in the airwaves
