Biografía:
Rheostatics are a Canadian indie rock band. Although they had only one Top 40 hit (Claire in 1995), they were simultaneously one of Canada's most influential and most unconventional rock bands in the 1990s, a band whose defiantly quirky, yet compelling, take on pop and rock music has been described both as iconic and iconoclastic.
They played their farewell concert to a sold-out house at Toronto's Massey Hall on March 30, 2007. Sound board recordings of that and many other shows are available (with permission) at http://rheostaticslive.

C F
Got A friend in B.C.,

I wanna buy a motercycle,

And cut up to some farm.
C Bb F
Somewhere in this cowshit county,
C Bb F
where the hills are round and green,
C Bb F
round and green, round and green,
C Bb F
where the hills are round and green!
C F
Late nights make me really tired,
C F
all this jamming gives me a headaches,
C F
like listening to earthquakes,
C F
all wired up for rock and roll,
F G C F
Mama only listens to the radio,

Papa only watches the hockey game,

This suburb rocks with the eddie van Wailers,

God save the Queen-- She made you a MORON

Intro C/G
C
Well I heard Wendel talking to Dave Hodge last night
F G C
he said that he was confident and keen
he said that Jacques Plante did`nt die
so all of us could glide
F G C
he said that hard work is the ethic of the free.
CHORUS
F C
Wendel was a man with a stick in his hands
G C G C
he learned how to play in Kelvington S.A.S.K.
F
You`ll wish that you had died
C
when Wendel has your hide
G C/G
`cause he does it the Canadian way
C
so now we sit around on the couch and watch T.V.,
F G C
And we see Wendel leading the team
C
If god made Clark on the 7th day,
F G C
He knew what He was doing if He did......If He did!
