           Scared - The Tragically Hip 
     from "Day for Night" - 1994 RCA Records 
     ======================================= 

This is just what I could make out from the CD "Day for Night" and 
is by no means the exact tab.  Actaully it's my first try so 
forgive any discrepancies.  I saw a need for some more Canadian music  
up on the FTP sites so I thought I should give what I could.

Chords: 
                D     Asus4       G     Asus4 
I could make you scared, if you want me to 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
I'm not prepared, but if I have to 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
He said, I can make you scared, it's kinda what I do 
         D      Asus4       G         D 
If you're prepared, here's what I propose to do 


         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
You're in Russia and more that a million works of art 
         D      Asus4       G   
are wisked out to the woods 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
So when the Nazis find the whole place dark 
         D      Asus4       G          
They'd think god's left the museum for good 


         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
I make you scared, if that's what I do 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
If you're prepared, if I have to 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
If I make you scared and you pay me to 
         D      Asus4       G         D 
If that's the deal now here's what I can do for you 


     Asus4             G              Asus4 
Now there's a focus group that can prove 
     Asus4             G              D 
this is all nothing but cold calculation 
         D      Asus4       G         Asus4 
         D      Asus4       G         


Tests have shown that suspicious or hostile 
Their lives need not be shortened  
truth be told they can live a long, long while 
Tickled to death by their importance 


If you make me scared, if that's what you do 
If I'm unclear can I get out of this thing with me and you 
If you feel scared, a bit confused, 
I gotta say this sounds a little beyong anything I'm used to 


Now there's a precious few that can prove that at the root 
This is all nothing but cold calculation 


Clearly entranced, you're leaning back now 
Defanged destroyer limps into the bay 
Down at the beach, it's attracting quite a crowd 
As kids wade through the blood out to it to play 


OK you made me scared, you did what you set out to do 
I'm not prepared, you really had me going there for a minute or two 
He said, you made me scared too, I wasn't sure I was getting through 
I gotta go, it's been a pleasure doing business with you

I play this song starting with the first figure, then switch between all 
four as fits the song.  These are pretty close to the way I play them,  
but they're more like a general idea.  Play around with them with the  
song to find the style of the song.  Later!
