SONG: 'It's A Good Life If You Don't Weaken'
BAND: The Tragically Hip
ALBUM: In Violet Light (2002)
TUNING: EADGBe
When the colour of the night
And all the smoke for one life
,
Gives way to shaky movements,
Improvisational skills,
A forest of whispering speakers
Let's swear that we will
Get with the times,
In a current health to stay
Let's get friendship right
Get life day-to-day
In the forget-yer-skates dream
Full of countervailing woes
In diverse-as-ever scenes
Proceeding on a need-to-know
In a face so full of meaning
As to almost make it glow
O' for a good life,
We just might have to weaken
And find somewhere to go
Go somewhere we're needed
Find somewhere to grow
Grow somewhere we're needed
