Verse 1:
 C
I've been all across this country,
               G7
From the east coast to the west;

And I've been asked about a thousand times
   C
What places I like best.

Well, I've had to base my answers
               G7
On the friendly people I've found;
              C
And if you're inclined to take the time
    G7          C
This is where you'll find MY STOMPIN' GROUNDS.


Chorus:
C
Just take a little piece of P.E.I.
         G7
And old Saskatchewan,

Nova Scotia and New Brunswick,
C
Quebec and Newfoundland;
                  G7
Alberta and Manitoba, Ontario and B.C.,
  C      G7    C
And you'll have found the Stompin' Grounds
  G7        C
Of all my friends and me.


Verse 2:
C
Now there was a time, with a buddy of mine
                G7
When a frieght train was our abode;

And we found people in this here land
         C
That would help a guy along the road;

Some of them lived in the country,
           G7
And others lived in town,
                C
But these are the people that made me proud
    G7         C
To say this is MY STOMPIN' GROUNDS.

And you'll have found the Stompin' Grounds
  G7        C
Of all my friends and me.


Verse 3:
C
And now you've heard my answer,
             G7
It's one I hope you'll understand,

It's just my way of kinda sayin' "Thank You"
    C
To the people of this land;

And it doesn't matter, really where you're from,
             G7
You can spread the word around;

Where ever you find a heart that's kind,
      G7         C
You're in a part of MY STOMPIN' GROUNDS.
