Chords

Song: Something On Band: The Tragically Hip Album: Phantom Power Label: Universal Music Canada Written By: The Tragically Hip Chorded By: ultimatelefty Definitely one of my favourite songs by The Hip, and I was surprised to not already see anything on here! So I decided to chord it out, though I wasn't quite sure if some of the chords were fifths or barres, so I have most of them listed as fifths in the song, but in the chord section up here at the top I wrote out the barred variations of the chords, so you can play it however you want!

F
Your imaginations having puppies

It could be a video for new recruits Just stare into the camera

                 D5  C5      A#5
And pretend that you got the flu 

               D5       C5    A#5
Or dreams of impossible vacations 

            D5    C5       A#5
And get all teary from the wind 

                        D5        C5         A#5
Look as though you're standing at the station 

                     D5   C5   F
Long after the train came in 

            G5                 A#5
And see how the space tautens 

                 D5   C5   F
Like there's something on 

             G5                A#5                
And you're never more hot then 

                    D5   C5   F  
When you've got something on 

F
Picture a century of water

Bury the pipeline guy right here Kill the dream of possible vacations

                     D5   C5     A#5
With the sweep of a mapping pioneer 

                   D5  C5    A#5
Outside there's hectic action 

            D5   C5      A#5
The ice is covering the trees 

                  D5  C5       A#5
And one of em's interconnecting 

           D5  C5     F
With my chevrolet caprice 

              G5           A#5
Black out to phantom power 

                  D5  C5    F
And like there's nothing on 

          G5            A#5
And hammering the tower

And now there's nothing on Break (Listen to song for timing): G#5 F G#5 G5 A#5

G#5                     F
We'll ride the monorail 

                    G#5          G5
Rocking gently home on the trail 

             A#5               F
You wanna to show me the moon 

F
I know you're standing at the station

I know there's nothing on I know the alienation I know the train's long gone

F             G5                A#5
I can see how your face tautens 

                    D5  C5   F
Like you've got something on 

            G5               A#5
It makes me feel just rotten 

                   D5  C5   F
But you've got something on

D5 C5 F (x4)
