The Dark Canuck
the tragically hip - from In Violet Light

intro: [G][F#][C] x3
[G]This one is for you and it[F#] goes
on and [C]on and on
when [G]nothing seems to do
for [F#]when[C] the doubtless and the wrong
[G]ask; 'can I help you?
 in that way [F#][C]that says, 'I can't'
or [G]claim we're all the same just inconsis[F#]tent[C]
or pre[Bm]tend all understanding turned out[C] to be pretense
then pre[G]tend the pretense of understanding
[C]how long does it take depends

[B7]You can cast your doubts tu[C]rn em inside-out
ha[D]ng em upside-down [C]

chorus:
til their art  falls out [D][G5]
the short an[F5]swer's; for[C]ty-eight ho[G]urs
(same progression) let your heart all out
til your art fall out - the short answer's forty eight hours
let your heart all out summon up your power

interlude:  hangs on C for a while, then C D C    G

(progression like first verse)
If you need a good connection for drugs
or a strong tolerance for alcohol
too little religious education some pain threshhold
[Bm]if from the outside there's no de[C]mand for what you do
and in[G]side there's an army waiting for their
mar[C]ching orders from you
[B7]come sit on my swing-seat
co[C]me sit on my porch
after [D]ten at night, smoke your cigarettes
if you [C]like of course

[B7]you can cast your doubts turn[C] em inside-out
hang[D] em upside-down [C]

repeat chorus, then hang out on C til the next section:

[B]If we ever get home let's don't compare
let's relinquish all our holidays
and drive-in premieres
[C][D]if we ever get home[C]
(same progression) gonna have me three children
Apple, Zippo and Metronome
that's what I'm gonna name them
and get celebrity sk[B]in (woo!)
the illusion of tough
I'm gonna talk about [E]nothing til nothing's e[B]nough
[C][D]if we ever get [C]home
[C][D] and the subject comes [C]up
this [C] War isn't [D]for children[C]
[C] War is nothing's[D] enou[E]gh
O' in the clo[Bm]uds of bl[G]ood at the end of JA[A]WS
in the mis[Bm]ted [G]cars honking their a[A]pplause
at the drive[Bm][C]-in double feat[A]ure
at the he[Bm]art of the d[G]ark enough [A]

to the chorus:
O' it's JA[D]WS and The Dark Canuck
should we stay for The Dark Canuck?
yea, everyone, hands up!?
who's for "The Dark Canuck'?

[C]I think we relinquished enough
and it's [Cm]still dark eno[Csus2]ugh [C]
[Cm]and it goes on and [G]on
