Long Time Running - Tragically Hip


Intro:  A  E/G#  F#m  E  D  E

A                                F#m
Does your mother tell you things
                    A
Long, long when I'm gone
                   F#m
Who you talking to
                           E
Is she telling you I'm the one
       D
It's a grave mistake
        A  E/G#  F#m  E  D  E
And I'm wide awake


A                     F#m
Drive-in's rained out
                           A
Weatherman wet fingers the sky

He pokes it out
   F#m
He pulls it in
              E
He don't know why
         D            E
It's the same mistake

                            A  E/G#  F#m  E    D      E
Chorus		It's been a long          time running
                            A  E/G#  F#m  E    D     E
		It's been a long          time coming
                          A
		It's well worth the wait


F#m

A  F#m

A                   F#m
We don't go anywhere

Just on trips
A                       F#m
We haven't seen a thing
                          E
We still don't know where it is
       D            E
It's a safe mistake


                            A  E/G#  F#m  E    D      E
		It's been a long          time running
                            A  E/G#  F#m  E    D     E
		It's been a long          time coming

D                              A
Well, well it's all the same mistake
                   D
Dead to rights and wide awake
                A
I'll drop a caribou
                D
I'll tell on you
                F#m  E  D  E
I'll tell on you

A                           F#m
You got a boat load of nerve
                            A
But I would say you've been told
                          F#m
You work me against my friends
                               E
And you'll get left out in the cold
         D            E
It's the same mistake


Chorus

Subject: CRD/LYR: Long time running - Tragically Hip

This is the first time I post something here, so all comments are
welcome. I know this song only from a Dutch radio-show where all kind
of bands come and play, sort of semi-unplugged, so it's maybe a little
different from the original (which I don't really know). This song
also appears on a CD of this radio-show: 2 Meter Sessies, Vol. 3.
(Radio Records VCD 474724 2, distribution by Sony). On these CD's
(Vol. 5 is out now) are a lot of famous bands, playing
very-good-to-play-yourself-acousticly versions of well- or less
well-known songs. I'm planning to post a few more if it's appreciated,
let me know.
