Danny Michel is a singer-songwriter based just outside Guelph, Ontario, Canada.
Born in 1970 and raised in Kitchener, Ontario , he began his professional career playing with the Rhinos before beginning a solo career. In the late 1990s, he moved to Ottawa, where he developed a loyal following with a weekly show at the Manx Pub on Elgin St. In his live shows, he often uses looped live samples of his guitar and other instruments to create a richly layered solo performance.

E A B E
I used to drive a race car, but I won every single time
E A B E E F#m G#m
I once met the great Elvis Presley way back in his prime
A E E F#m A
And the pilot had a heart attack, yeah, so I had to land the plane
A B A B
And I once saved a little kid from drownin', and I invented cellophane
[Verse 2]
E A B E
I used to be a millionaire, I'd drop a thousand bucks a day
E A B E E F#m G#m
That only made me all the more lonely so I threw it all away
A E E F#m A
And I've lived almost everywhere, probably right in your own neighbourhood
A B A B
I once broke out of prison and I hid out in the woods
[Verse 3]
E A B E
It was there that I discovered a dinosaur, and I'd drive a blue Corvette
E A B E E F#m G#m
I once swam clear across Lake Erie without even getting wet
A E E F#m A
I'm the guy who saved the show 'cause I know how to fix a fuse
A B A B
Are these pretzels complimentary? Well, I don't mind if I do
[Verse 4]
E A B E
I used to play the guitar myself 'till a press crushed my hand
E A B E E F#m G#m
Have you heard of the great Otis Redding? Well, I played in his band
A E E F#m A
I once worked as a miner; I was an actor for a little while off in France
A B A B
And my uncle's cousin's brother taught Fred Astaire to dance
[Verse 5]
E A B E
So if you ask me how to tango I'll wear down any rug
E A B E E F#m G#m
Cause if you've seen the way those kids all dance today I swear they're all on drugs
A E E F#m A
I could drink me a million drinks if a million drinks did appear
A B A B
But I only got enough for one more little beer
