Weeping Tile was a Canadian rock band in the 1990s.
The band was started by singer-songwriter Sarah Harmer in 1993, when she was invited to fill in for the opening band at a Bag of Hammers concert in Ottawa, Ontario. Taking the name Weeping Tile from the clay pipes that are placed around the foundations of rural homes to draw groundwater away from the building, she did the show as a duo with Joe Chithalen, and later added other musicians to round out the lineup.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!

Intro: G Fg Em+ Cg x2
G Fg Em+ Cg She calls early in the morning G Fg Em+ Cg.... about money that I might have spent it's a classic case of I don't know where it went and I want this to read like a letter and I want it to ring like a phrase somewhere out in the road as the sky's last light burns away
You call, I write, I may answer I may never send anything and you'll leave and you'll go it's alright if we don't remember Cg - D - EmDC - Did I say I'd stay? What if I was wrong? G Fe Em+ Cg G Fe Em+ Cg I'll be out in the road before you know that I've gone (x2)
D Cg (hammer-on on 4th string) And I'm tired, of reflection and warning D Cg keeping myself at the centre of it all D Cg we lie out of boredom DG Fe Em+ Cg G Fe Em+ Cg just to stall the inevitable
You're waking in bed, light a candle you said you were leaving before the sun and what does it mean to mean something and never get anything done Cg - D - EmDC - I lie in wait for the better part of the day G Fe Em+ Cg G Fe Em+ Cg to be out in the road as the sky's last light burns away (x3)
