Biography:
Captain Tractor is a Canadian folk rock band, based in Edmonton, Alberta. They play a punk-influenced variant of Celtic folk music, similar to such bands as Great Big Sea, The Pogues or Spirit of the West.
The band's most famous songs have been renditions of the folk music classics "The Log Driver's Waltz" and "Drunken Sailor", as well as a cover of the Arrogant Worms' "The Last Saskatchewan Pirate". This song has become so popular that many fans believe, wrongly, that is of their own creation.

Intro:
Em C G D 2x
Em C G D
I've spent all my life just carrying on
Em C G D
And for every right thing I've done ten have been wrong
Em C G D
And It's not that I'm bragging for the sake of a song
Em C G
But life looks much better in perspective
Em C G D
And your eyes look at me from near and from far
Em C G D
Ten thousand miles and you're still where you are
Em C G D
Another brass rail in another old bar
Em C G
I'm better at dreaming than living
Chorus:
Em C G D
For every hello there's a thousand good byes
Em C G D
And leaving is harder when I look in your eyes
Em C G D
You've got to believe me I'm not telling lies
Em C G Em
That for every hello there's a thousand good byes
C G D Em C G D
Em C G D
The years slip away like the spring melts the snow
Em C G D
And I'm older and wiser than you'll ever know
Em C G D
And if you believe that then it's time I should go
Em C G D
'Cause I'm just as confused and more twisted
Em C G D
And things keep on changing for better or worse
Em C G D
And rhymes just get harder with every new verse
Em C G D
And to say that I love you sounds way too perverse
Em C G D
'Cause I'm getting on that bus in the morning
Chorus
Em C G D 2x
Em C G /
D C
I could give it all to you
D C D
But I can't control the things that I do
C
And I don't know what to say
D C D
'Cause the sun's coming up and I know I can't stay
Chorus (x2)
So goodbye
And goodbye
Em
Yeah goodbye
