Thank you so much.
Ohhhhhh
Come back proud Canadians
[A] To before [E] you had TV
[Gm] No hockey night in Canada
[D] There was no [A] CBC
[E] Oh my God!
[D] In 1812 Madison [A] was mad
He was the President you know
[G] Well he thought he'd tell the [Gm] British [A] where they ought to go.
He [D] thought he'd invade Canada.
[A] He thought that he was tough.
[G] Instead we went to [Dm] Washington.
[A] And burned down all his stuff in the White House.
Burn, burn, burn.
And we're the ones that did it.
It burned, burned, burned while the President [E] ran and cried.
[D]
It burned, burned, burned and things were very historical.
[A] And the Americans ran and cried like a bunch of little babies.
Wah, wah, wah in the War of [D] 1812.
Passed millbillies from Kentucky, [A] dressed in green and red.
[D] Left home to fight in Canada, but they [A] returned home dead.
[D] It's the only war the Yankees [A] loved except for Vietnam.
[D] And also the Alamo.
Right.
And the [A] Bay of Ham.
[D] The loser was America, [A] the winner was ourselves.
[D] So join right in and glue them out.
The War of 1812 in the [G] White House.
Burn, burn, [D] burn.
And we're the ones that did it.
It burned, burned, burned while the President [A] ran and cried.
[G] It burned, burned, [D] burned and things were very [A] historical.
And the Americans ran and cried like a bunch of little babies.
Wah, wah, wah [G] in [A] the War of 1812.
In 1812 we were [A] just sitting around, minding our own [D] business.
Putting crops into the ground.
We heard the soldiers coming and we didn't like that sound.
So we took a boat to Washington and burned it to the ground.
Oh, we fired our guns but the Yankees kept it coming.
There wasn't one as many as there was a while ago.
We fired once more and the Yankees started running.
Down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico.
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah.
They [A] ran through the [D] snow and they ran through the forest.
[A] They ran through the bushes where [D] the beavers wouldn't go.
They ran so [D] fast they forgot to take their [A] culture.
Back to America [D] in Gulf and Texaco.
Woah, woah, woah, woah, woah, woah.
So, if you go to Washington,
[A] It's buildings clean and nice.
Bring a pack of matches.
And we'll burn the White House twice.
And [G] the White House burned, burned, burned.
[D] But the Americans won't admit [G] it.
It burned, burned, [D] burned.
It burned and [A] burned and burned.
[G] It burned, burned, [D] burned.
Now that that made them mad.
[A] And the Americans ran and cried like a bunch of little babies.
Wham, wham, wham.
[Am] [G] In the war of [A] 18.
[D] Wham.
