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
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tragically_hip/scared_tab.html ]
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!
