The Dire Wolf-The Tragically Hip
Here ya go, by popular demand, another Hip tab from "In Violet Light". Nice and easy this one is, though the D thing is open for debate. I'm on my acoustic, and that's as good as I can make it sound....comments? markbunt@shaw.ca
This here is the D-THING riff that the song is based around. Try and make it work for you and your guitar style....there are also all sorts of fills here and there. You'll have to figure that our yourself

D-THING
in that September off
Isle aux Morts
the desultory sea
grew more so through the night
and made one think of
tawny ports,
as aspen tremblin'
in tomorrow's thorough light
G
and of Tallulah Bankhead
and Canada Lee
D-THING
somewhere far-off, peaceful, sleeping
and done with acting
G
past the Dire Wolf's lair
on a Newfoundland's paws
D-THING
close to nowhere
and halfway across
CHORUS
G A
but never more 'here'
Bm D
expanse getting broader
G A
though bigger boats been
Bm
done by less water
G A Bm D
tho better boats been done by this water
G A D-THING
tho better boats been done by less water
D-THING
in that september off
Isle aux Morts
colourable seas
grew more to through the night
G
And made one think of
yawnin' shores
D-THING
Gambier-bleached
in tomorrow's thorough light
G
and the Tallulah Bankhead
and Canada Lee
D-THING
somewhere far-off, peaceful, sleeping
they learned to love sleep
cHORUS
at the Dire Wolf's crest
the Newfoundland paused
desolate's best
was gotten across
we were never more 'here'
expanse getting broader
when better boats been
done by this water
SOLO (G D-THING)
cHORUS
at the Dire Wolf's best
the Newfoundland paused
so desperate as
to be a lost cause
you were never more hear
expanse getting broader
when better boats been
done by this water
where bigger boats been done by less water
and betting boats been done by this water
when bigger boats been done by less water
and better boats been done by this water
