Long Time Running - Tragically Hip
[Intro] A E/G# F#m E D E
[Verse 1]
A F#m
Does your mother tell you things
A
Long, long when I'm gone
F#m
Who you talking to
E
Is she telling you I'm the one
D
It's a grave mistake
A E/G# F#m E D E
And I'm wide awake
A F#m
Drive-in's rained out
A
Weatherman wet fingers the sky
He pokes it out
F#m
He pulls it in
E
He don't know why
D E
It's the same mistake
[Chorus]
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time running
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time coming
A
It's well worth the wait
F#m
A F#m
[Verse 2]
A F#m
We don't go anywhere
Just on trips
A F#m
We haven't seen a thing
E
We still don't know where it is
D E
It's a safe mistake
[Chorus]
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time running
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time coming
D A
Well, well it's all the same mistake
D
Dead to rights and wide awake
A
I'll drop a caribou
D
I'll tell on you
F#m E D E
I'll tell on you
A F#m
You got a boat load of nerve
A
But I would say you've been told
F#m
You work me against my friends
E
And you'll get left out in the cold
D E
It's the same mistake
[Chorus]
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time running
A E/G# F#m E D E
It's been a long time coming
