          Dm         F              Dm G 
Do you remember the good years in Canaan? 
     Dm          F         Gm A7 
The summers were endlessly gold 
     Em            A            Em   A 
The fields were a patchwork of clover 
    A            A7        Dm  A 
The winters were never too cold 
    Dm               F          Dm   G 
We'd stroll down the boulevards together 
    D            D7          Gm 
And everything 'round us was fine 


Jacob 
 Gm 
Now the fields are dead and bare 
  Dm 
No joie de vivre anywhere 
     A            A7            Dm 
Et maintenant we drink a bitter wine 


Brothers 
             Dm               F 
Those Canaan days we used to know 
                Dm                   G 
Where have they gone, where did they go? 
     Gm               Dm 
Eh bien, raise your berets 
A               Dm 
To those Canaan days 


Simeon 
        Dm              F        Dm 
Do you remember those wonderful parties? 
     Dm           F         Gm A7 
The splendour of Canaan's cuisine 
     Em           A       Em   A 
Our extravagant, elegant soirées 
      A         A7       Dm A 
The gayest the Bible has seen 
        Dm              F        Dm 
It's funny, but, since we lost Joseph 
        D             D7     Gm 
We've gone to the other extreme 
   Gm 
No-one comes to dinner now 
  Dm 
We'd only eat them anyhow 
    A           A7               Dm 
I even find I'm missing Joseph's dreams 


Brothers 
             Dm               F 
Those Canaan days we used to know 
                Dm                   G 
Where have they gone, where did they go? 
     Gm               Dm 
Eh bien, raise your berets 
A               Dm 
To those Canaan days 


Simeon 
     Dm          F              Dm   G 
It's funny, but, since we lost Joseph 
      D            D7    Gm 
We've gone to the other extreme 
 Gm 
Perhaps we all misjudged the lad 
 Dm 
Perhaps he wasn't quite that bad 
   A                A7 
And how we miss his entertaining 
 Dm 
Dreams 


Brothers 
      Dm                      F 
Those Canaan days we used to know 
                Dm                        G 
Where have they gone, where did--did they go? 
   Gm                  Dm 
Eh bien, raise your berets 


Simeon 
A         A7    Dm 
To those Canaan days 

Dm   F    Dm   G 

Brothers 
   Gm                Dm 
Eh bien, raise your berets 
 A        A7    Dm 
To those Canaan days!
