D✕✕132
DFrom Gglacial erosion to indigenous care
GFrom EmEuropean Cexploration to Gindustrial glare
GThe Lake of Shining Waters is what Cthe GIroquois called her
GIt's a EmFirst Nations Cname, not Gan executive order
GDBut things Emweren't Cgoing his way in Iran
CSo like Da baby Emtossing the Ctoys from the pram
CHe may have thought Git best to throw Ca low blow
CAnd create a Emreal dog and Dpony show
DBut it Gfeels like another Cdistraction
CWhile the EmEpstein files are Dgetting traction
DOne day Gthey'll come out and we'll Csay, "There you Ggo"
GAnd Emthen we'll all Ddive into GLake Ontario
G(Oh, Coh, Emoh-oh)
Em(Oh, Doh, oh)
DGAfter Ccenturies of Gtrade and war
GPeople Emsettled down Con the Gbanks and shores
GAll rivalries and Cconflicts Ghad all but ceased
GBut it Emjust took Cone dude Gto break that peace
GOh, Dthings Emweren't Cgoing his way in Iran
CSo Dlike a baby Emtossing the Ctoys from the pram
CHe might have Gthought it best to throw Ca low blow
CAnd create a real Emdog and pony Dshow
DBut it Gfeels like another Cdistraction
CWhile Emthe Epstein files are Dgetting traction
DOne day Gthey'll come out and we'll Csay, "There you Ggo"
GAnd Emthen we'll all Ddive into Lake GOntario
G(Oh, Coh, Emoh-oh)
Em(Oh, oh, Doh)

How to play Lake Ontario by Bryan Adams on guitar

These are the sounding chords. With a capo on fret 2 you play D, G, Em, C, the shapes the player above shows.

The chart has four main chords: A, D, E and F#m. F#m is a barre chord. The others are open shapes. The change you will play most is A to D, 14 times in the chart, so practise that one first.

Use the play-along above to follow each chord change in time with the music, or learn the shapes first with the chord diagrams below.
