Opiated by The Tragically Hip
>From UP TO HERE, 1989
Intro: G5 D5 Em x 3
D5 E5 Em x 1
Em G5 D5 Em
He bought two fifths of lead-free gasoline
Em G5 D5 Em
Said, the bottle is dusty, but my engine is clean
Em G5 D5 Em
He bought a nice blue suit with the money he could find
Em G5 D5 Em
If his bride didn't like it St.Peter wouldn't mind
CHORUS:
G5 D5 E5 G5 D5 E5
Now I lie here so out-of-breath and over-opiated
G5 D5 E5 G5 D5 Em
Maybe I couldn't catch up, no but maybe he could of waited
Well the medicine man started seeing red
You think the snake just dreams up the poison in his head
Addicted to approval, addicted to the air
It was "see if you like it or see you on up there"
CHORUS
CHORDS:
D5 - x577xx
Em - 0220xx
E5 - x799xx
G5 - 355xxx
