Originally by The Innocence Mission
but personally, I like Sufjan's cover better.
I tabbed it from this video that is filmed well
here is the guitar tab for the key he does it in the video
the second half of the lyrics is in banjo tab.
I just split the type of tab it is so you can have the full
lyrics and so I didnt have to put the full song up twice.
enjoy, this is a fun song to play.
Guitar:
Standard tuning and all, capo on 4 please.
Look for me another day.
I feel that I could change,
I feel that I could change.
There's a sudden joy that's like
a fish, a moving light;
I thought I saw it
rowing on the lakes of Canada
Oh laughing man, what have you won?
Don't tell me what cannot be done.
My little mouth, my winter lungs,
don't tell me what can't be done.
Banjo:
Standard tuning and all, capo on 2 please.
Walking in the circle of a flashlight
someone starts to sing, to join in.
Talk of loneliness in quiet voices.
I am shy but you can reach me.
Rowing on the lakes of Canada,
Rowing on the lakes of Canada,
Oh laughing man, what have you won?
Don't tell me what cannot be done.
My little mouth, my winter lungs,
don't tell me what cannot be done.
Yeah, you did it.
