Song: Something On
Band: The Tragically Hip
Album: Phantom Power
Label: Universal Music Canada
Written By: The Tragically Hip
Chorded By: ultimatelefty
Definitely one of my favourite songs by The Hip, and I was surprised
to not already see anything on here! So I decided to chord it out, though
I wasn't quite sure if some of the chords were fifths or barres, so I have
most of them listed as fifths in the song, but in the chord section up here
at the top I wrote out the barred variations of the chords, so you can play it
however you want! Anyways, please rate, comment, and enjoy!

Intro: D5 C5 F (x3)
F
Your imaginations having puppies
It could be a video for new recruits
Just stare into the camera
D5 C5 A#5
And pretend that you got the flu
D5 C5 A#5
Or dreams of impossible vacations
D5 C5 A#5
And get all teary from the wind
D5 C5 A#5
Look as though you're standing at the station
D5 C5 F
Long after the train came in
G5 A#5
And see how the space tautens
D5 C5 F
Like there's something on
G5 A#5
And you're never more hot then
D5 C5 F
When you've got something on
F
Picture a century of water
Bury the pipeline guy right here
Kill the dream of possible vacations
D5 C5 A#5
With the sweep of a mapping pioneer
D5 C5 A#5
Outside there's hectic action
D5 C5 A#5
The ice is covering the trees
D5 C5 A#5
And one of em's interconnecting
D5 C5 F
With my chevrolet caprice
G5 A#5
Black out to phantom power
D5 C5 F
And like there's nothing on
G5 A#5
And hammering the tower
And now there's nothing on
Bridge
G#5 F G#5 G5 Eb F
G#5 F
We'll ride the monorail
G#5 G5
Rocking gently home on the trail
Eb F
You wanna to show me the moon
F
I know you're standing at the station
I know there's nothing on
I know the alienation
I know the train's long gone
F G5 A#5
I can see how your face tautens
D5 C5 F
Like you've got something on
G5 A#5
It makes me feel just rotten
D5 C5 F
But you've got something on
D5 C5 F (x4)
