PUTTING DOWN - The Tragically Hip
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Pat Malavi
Capo 5th fret
[Intro]
A D
[Verse 1]
A D A
Held a bird's egg between her breasts
D A
There's reasons for the road I guess
D A
To document the indigenous
D
To paint and sketch, paint and sketch
A E D A
I'm starting to fail to be impressed
[Verse 2]
A D A
United state of ricochet
D A
From the boardwalk to the Appian way
D A
The diamond files, the corporate raves
D
You'd practically kill not to be afraid
A E D A
And I'm starting to choke on the things I say
[Chorus 1]
E A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
E D
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
E D A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down
[Verse 3]
A D A
Browbeaten out from underneath your dress
D A
The documented indigenous
D A
Civilization flipped its desk
D
You know the rest, there is no rest
A E D A
And I'm starting to fail to know what's best
[Chorus 2]
E A
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
E D
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down
E D A D
I'm putting down, I'm putting down, I'm putting down, down
A D A D A D A D A D A
Down, down, down, down
A E D A
