The Tragically Hip Family Band Lyrics

FAMILY BAND ?? Tragically Hip
Chords (all are partial bar chords):
Intro:
Guitar 1 (repeat many times): C
Guitar 2 riff (repeat three times):
Guitar 2 riff (last time):
Verse 1:
I can??t smell a rat when it??s all rat
I can??t find one in an elevator
My mind doesn??t work so bad
But I am a poor exterminator, that??s right
I can??t destroy entirely
Or annihilate a little later
I can??t see the entire city
But I??m not a bad exterminator
Chorus:
I??m just a shade shy of true wickedness
I??m a shade shy of truly loving it, yeah
There are other things I??d rather be doing
Even nothing
Even nothing
Even nothing with you
Verse 2:
One day I??ll make some honest rock n roll
Full of handclaps and gang vocals
I??m gonna get all the children involved
We??re gonna get lost on all you locals
Chorus:
We??ll be a shade shy of true wickedness
We??ll be a shade shy of truly loving this, yeah
There are other things we??ll rather be doing, sure
Even nothing
Even nothing
Even nothing with you
Bridge:
We??ll load out through the snow through
Small groups of people smoking
Hey, get that kick drum loaded
Into the backseat folded down
We??ll go virtually unnoticed
What??s gripping the city ain??t hitting the town
Chorus:
We??ll be a shade shy of true wickedness
We??ll be a shade shy of truly loving this, yeah
There are other things that we??ll surely miss
Bridge:
We??ll load out through the snow through
Small groups of people smoking
Hey, get that kick drum loaded
Into the backseat folded down
We??ll go perfectly unnoticed
What??s gripping the city ain??t hitting the town
