Crash Vegas was a noted Canadian folk rock band in the 1990s.
The band was formed by Michelle McAdorey and Colin Cripps, initially as a vehicle for songs McAdorey had written with Greg Keelor of the band Blue Rodeo. The band also included Jocelyne Lanois and Ambrose Pottie.
They released their debut album, Red Earth, on Risque Disque in 1990. They had several notable hits on Canadian radio ("Inside Out", "Sky" and "Smoke"), and seemed poised for success.

This is a beautiful song that I couldn’t find anywhere! So I sat down and learned it! A Canadian Classic. enjoy

Intro:
C///Em///Am///G///F///Em///F///G///C/G///
C Tell me how to cut the cord EmAm When all I want is to hold you up, G And float away. F Maybe we should get out of here, Em And talk about the things we shared, FG Or maybe we should take a break,
Chorus:
CFC Well there must be smoke or something in my eyes EmAmFG I never thought I’d feel this way before until we said good-bye FFmC Until we said good-bye
CEmAm Its not like so many hours, the nights when all we do is fight G About the way we talk FEmF I was on the telephone their only going to where us down G When I want to take you home
Chorus:
Solo: ( over verse chords ) CEm You say that Im your eyes and I whisper I’ve gone blind AmG You wear a smile like a veil F Look close of last nights smoke Em And you just drink to stay afloat FG And I swim by and pull the plug
