>From THE TRAGICALLY HIP EP, 1987

A (x02220@1)                        D (xx0232@1)      Dsus2 (xx0230@1)Dsus2/E
You know the reasons I can't conceal
                     D (xx0232@1)                    Dsus2 (xx0230@1)  Dsus2/E
You know I'm leaving you obviously you know how I feel
                    D (xx0232@1)                   Dsus2 (xx0230@1)  AIt's (x02220@1)not as easy as calling out your name when I'm down
Dsus2/E               D (xx0232@1)           Dsus2 (xx0230@1)Dsus2/E
It's not a matter for wrong or right
                          D (xx0232@1)            Dsus2 (xx0230@1)    Dsus2/E
It ain't much better than drinking and looking to fight
D (xx0232@1)                 Dsus2 (xx0230@1)                        AYou (x02220@1)know I'm tired of crawling 'hing my name among the crowd

CHORUS:
           D (xx0232@1)           AI'm (x02220@1)on the last american exit to the northland
           D (xx0232@1)           AI'm (x02220@1)on the last american exit to my homeland
           D (xx0232@1)           AI'm (x02220@1)on the last american exit to my last chance
          G (320003@1)         Gmaj9 (32423x@1)D (xx0232@1)               AThey (x02220@1)keep calling out my     name - I shout it down

You've made them wonder and know for sure
you've made them hunger at night and then run for the door
you know you'll probably cry like caesar's son when you're found

It's not your place it's another town
let's face it baby I'm up and then baby I'm down
You'll watch the border offer you fame and watch you drown

CHORUS

D (xx0232@1)                      Dsus2 (xx0230@1)           Dsus2/E
Know your neighbours and know they'll take us
D (xx0232@1)                    Dsus2 (xx0230@1)     Dsus2/E
Know my city it's just like theirs are
D (xx0232@1)                       Dsus2 (xx0230@1)           AHope (x02220@1)I make it I know I'm gonna make it somehow

Know my saviour he knows you shakers
Know my pity I'll see you later
I'd like to stay but I know it doesn't matter somehow

They keep callin out my name
they keep callin out my name
they keep callin out my name
I shout it down

A (x02220@1)     -  x02220
D (xx0232@1)     -  xx0232
