Fundado en 1995, su nombre viene de las monedas de 5 centavos de dólar, que reciben en Canadá el nombre de Nickel, que Mike Kroeger tenía que devolver a los clientes de la cafetería Starbucks en la que trabajaba. En ella tenía que decir a sus clientes "aquí tiene sus cinco centavos" (traducción no literal de "here's your nickel back")
El núcleo del grupo proviene de Hanna, Alberta (Canada), aunque actualmente están establecidos en Vancouver, Columbia Británica (Canada).
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

-Verse 1-
E12 BG Look at this Photograph, everytime I do it makes me laugh,
A E12 How did our eyes get so red, and what the hell is on joeys head.
E12 BG And this is where I grew up, I think the present owner fixed it up,
A E12 I never knew we ever went without,the second floor is high for sneakin out
E12 BG and this is where I went to school, most of the time had better things to do
A E12 Criminal record says I broke in twice, I must have done half a dozen times
E12 BG I wonder if it's too late, should I go back and try to graduate,
AG Life's better now than it was back then, if I was them I would'nt let me in
A Oh Oh Oh... Oh God I
-Chorus-
EB Every memory of lookin' out the back door, I had the photo album spread GA out on my bedroom floor, It's hard to say it, time to say it, Good-bye Good-bye EB Every memory of walkin' out the front door, I found the photo of the friend GA that I was looking for, It's hard to say it, time to say it, Good-Bye Good-Bye
(E, B, G, A) Good spot for some slow riffs.
-Verse 2-
E12 BG We used to listen to the radio, and sing along to every song we'd know,
A We said someday we'd find out how it feels, to sing to more than just the E12 steering wheel.
E12 BG Kim's the first girl I kissed, I was so nervous that I nearly missed, A She's had a couple of kids since then, I haven't seen her since god knows GA when! Oh Oh Oh... Oh God I!
-Chorus-
-Bridge-
G, A, EBGA I miss that town, I can't beleive it, So hard to stay, so hard to E leave it!
(Arpeggiated and non barred) E12 B If I could Relive those days, I know the one thing that would never G change...
-Chorus-
-Outro-
EBG Look at this photograph, everytime I do It makes me laugh, A Everytime I do it makes me...
And thats it, let me know what ya think. Cheers.
