Nautical Disaster The Tragically Hip
Em-D-G-D-Em-D-C-D
Em D G
I had this dream where I relished the fray
D Em D C D
and the screaming filled my head all day.
Em D G
It was as though I'd been spit here, settled in,
D Em D C
into the pocket of a lighthouse on some rocky socket,
D Em D
off the coast of France, dear.
G D Em D
One afternoon, four thousand men died in the water here
C D Em D G
and five hundred more were thrashing madly as parasites might
D Em D C D
in your blood.
Em D G
Now I was in a lifeboat designed for ten and ten only,
D Em D
anything that systematic would get you hated.
C D Em D G D
It's not a deal nor a test nor a love of something fated-(uh).
Em D G
The selection was quick, the crew was picked (in order)
D Em D C D
and those left in the water got kicked off our pantleg
Em G C D
and we headed for home.
Em G C D
Em D G
Then the dream ends when the phone rings, you doing alright
D Em
he said it's out there most days and nights,
D C D
but only a fool would complain.
Em D G D
Anyway Susan, if you like, our conversation
Em D C D
is as faint as a sound in my memory,
Em D G D Em D C D
as those fingernails scratching on my hull.
Em G C D (repeat)
