       Em               D
I was laying on the porch
C                 G
As the bus drove by
     Em               D
Just talking to the dog
        C           G
About thinking to myself
         Em            D
There are so many big ideas
C              G 
We could talk about
      Em               D
But nothing that gets said
         C            G
Gets us out of Cabbagetown
Em         F
Oh Cabbagetown
Em         F
Oh Cabbagetown
F                 G
I will leave and I'll return
Em        F
Oh Cabbagetown 

I talked to my old granddad
As he fell into the sea
He said, "Time and tide are one thing
That no one understands"
I talked to my Uncle Jack
As he tried to talk to me
With a bottle in one hand
And another in the other

Oh Cabbagetown
Oh Cabbagetown
I will leave and I'll return
Oh Cabbagetown
Ohhhhhhhhh ohh ohh ohhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhh ohh ohh ohhhhh 

Oh Cabbagetown
Oh Cabbagetown
I will leave and I'll return
Oh Cabbagetown.
