As recorded by The Tragically Hip (From the 1994 Album DAY FOR NIGHT) [Intro] D C D C D C D [Chorus]
D        C         D          C
Greasy jungle, metropolis noir

D     C             D          C
Easy tangles the easiest so far
[Verse 1]
D C D C D C D C
I       I

D             
I drove down your road

        C
To Hazeldean where I tasted

D
Your funeral home's

    C
Sandwiches and coffee

D
I saw your hands melt

         C
Into one another

D 
I saw you grieve and grow

                        C
Care a lot about one another
[Verse 2]
D
I stood at your sink

           C
And I felt your warm water

D
I washed your dishes

                      C
And I looked out your kitchen window

D
I saw a soulful             

             C              D
Gymnast melt in the air and shudder

D
Just above the snow

C
Making moves that just weren't there

D C D C D C D C  G D
I       I
[Verse 3]
D
Velvet callow

                 C
With wet hands I turned out the lights

    D
And breathing shallow

C
Hesitated then went upstairs

        D
Where I picked up your housecoat

         C
Dried my hands and touched your hair

    D
And just then you awoke

C               D             C
You could never really barely care

D C D C D C D C  G D
I       I            I
[Chorus]
D         C        D
 Greasy jungle, metropolis noir
[Outro] D C D C D C D C D C D C D C D C D C D C D C D
