The Tragically Hip – At The Hundredth Meridian (Guitar)

 E            D
 Me debunk an american myth?

    A                   E
And take my life in my hands?

 E              D
Where the great plains begin

A                 E
At the hundredth meridian

E                D
At the hundredth meridian

A               E
Where the great plains begin

 E              D
Driving down a corduroy road

 A              E
Weeds standing shoulder high

 E              D
Ferris wheel is rusting

 A         E
Off in the distance

 E                D
At the hundredth meridian

 A                E
At the hundredth meridian

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian

 A               E
Where the great plains begin

 E                D
Left alone to get gigantic

 A                       E
Hard, huge and haunted

 E                    D
A generation so much dumber than it's parents

 A                        E
Came crashing through the window

 E               D
A raven strains along the line of the road

 A             E
carrying muddy old skull

 E                       D
The wires whistle their approval

 A            E
Off down the distance

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (hundredth meridian)

 A               E
At the hundredth meridian (you're going to miss me)

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)

 A              E
Where the great plains begin (at the hundredth meridian)

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (at the hundredth meridian)

 A                E
At the hundredth meridian (you're going to miss me)

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)

 A              E
Where the great plains begin

 E                      D
I remember, I remember Buffalo

    A           E
And I remember Hengelo

 E               D
It would seem to me

   A                            E
I remember every single fucking thing I know

 E          D       A           E                
If I die of vanity, promise me, promise me

 E      D             A            E                
If they bury me some place I don't want to be

 E            D                A          E                
You'll dig me up and transport me, unceremoniously

 E            D            A               E                
Away from the swollen city breeze, garbage bag trees

 E          D               A         E                
Whispers of disease and the acts of enormity

 E           D          A         E                
And lower me slowly and sadly and properly

 E     D         A        E                
Get Ry Cooder to sing my eulogy

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (hundredth meridian)

 A                E
At the hundredth meridian (you're going to miss me)

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)

 A              E
Where the great plains begin (at the hundredth meridian)

 E                D
At the hundredth meridian (at the hundredth meridian)

 A                E
At the hundredth meridian (baby, you're going to miss me)

 E               D
At the hundredth meridian (trust me)

 A              E
Where the great plains begin
