The Tragically Hip – Three Pistols (Guitar Acoustic)

  B   D             A        E  
Tom Thompson came paddling past

  B            D           A        E
I'm pretty sure it was him

       B        D      A    E
And he spoke so softly in accordance

           B       D      A        E
With the growing of the dim

          B            D         A           E 
He said, "Bring on the brand new renaissance

B       D         A       E
Cause I think I'm ready

B         D       A         E
I've been shaking all night long

B        D         A        E
  But my hands are steady."

G                D        A     
Three pistols came 

G                   D     A        G
and three people went, on their way

G             D        A
Three pistols strong      and three people spent

        B         D      A       E
Well he found his little lonely love

    B            D        A      E
His bride of the northern woods

         B       D      A      E 
But, she took me to the Opera House

B          D        A        E
  Like she said she would

         B              D             A    E
Then she sighed and she fell from the balcony

B           D       A         E
Shakespeare bent to touch

    B     D       A        E
She never had any time for me

        B         D     A  E
Cause I didn't protest enough

G                D        A     
Three pistols came 

G                   D     A        G
and three people went, on their way

G           D          A
Two pistols strong        and three people spent

B A B                              A A E
Little girls come on remembrance day

                             A A
Placing flowers on his grave

    B A B                             A A E
She waits in the shadows 'til after dark

                        A A
To sweep them all away 

       B A B                               A A E
I say, bring on the brand new renaissance

                        A A
Cause I think I'm ready

B A B                         A A E
I've been shaking all night long

                        A A
But my hands are steady

G                D        A     
Three pistols came 

G                   D     A        G
and three people went, on their way

G             D           A
Three pistols strong        and three people spent

G                D        A     
Three pistols came 

G                   D     A        G
and three people went, on their way

G           D             A
One pistol strong           and three people spent
