tab: Band: The Tragically Hip 
Song: Lake Fever 
Transcribed By: Almost Hip 


This is another cool song played by The Hip at new years. from my 
MP3's, I've managed to take a stab at the tab: If you play this song 
over the MP3 it will not sound right because The Hip always have thier 
guitars tuned flat in concert. If you want to play it over the MP3 tune 
Db Bb Gb Db Gb Db. 

The acoustic introduction goes something like this

   Can we take a bit of a breather?

C 
   Or we can skip to the coital fury.

Don't want a little piece of your heart.  


Just tellin' you a story about the lake fever.

You didn't say yes or no, neither.  
You whispered "Hurry"

Wanna be your roarin' floorboards.  
Wanna break the hearts of everyone.

Cause discontent to the (?) of investigation.  
G                         C 
And I'm gonna rain descent, collapse your tent.  
G 
Jack up your rent,  
            C 
Till we're talkin' in whispers again.  

riff1 
Until we're talking in whispers again.  
Until we're talking in whispers again.
