Verse 1

Sunshine you heal just as much as you hurt.

Regret in my veins and blood on my shirt.

I sure must have had myself a personal best.

It takes filling my lungs up with smoke to get things off my chest.

Chorus 1

Crossing the border,

wasted again,

With her number on a Canadian ten.

Verse 2

Oh mother, oh mother why do you complain?

I grew up alright so don't be ashamed.

My mouth has been cleaner and I may have lost all my faith.

'Til I believe in myself I can't give my conscience away.

Chorus 2

You're home with the dishes,

And I'm out with my friends,

Placing bets with a Canadian ten.

La la la la... (chords as per verse)

Chorus 3

North of the border,

A sin is a sin,

When you pay with a Canadian Ten.

Verse 3

I searched for a reason to not search for you.

But I feel like there's no place I haven't been through.

I told myself don't fall in love when you don’t know their name.

But my eyes are straight-wired to my heart and just bypass my brain.

Chorus 4

Sometimes I’m forgetful,

So I’ll start at the end,

And call the number on this Canadian ten.

And call the number on this Canadian ten.
