New Orleans Is Sinking

Tragically Hip

This is pretty crude, but is sounds good additions/corrections welcome. Previous post of the lick is included at the bottom. There are no CRD versions of this song on the archive that I could find. -Rick (use bar chords for ) Bourbon Blues, on the street, loose and complete Under skies of smokey blue -green I cant forsake a dixie dead shake So we danced the sidewalk clean My memory is muddy, what?s this river that I?m in? Hey New Orleans is sinkin, man And I dont want to swim Back to shuffle for second verse Play an ?? for the yelp (AHHHHHH-HAAA) From ?Pale as a lightbulb...to I swear to GOD she said? do the shuffle then repeat the ?? for the AHHHHHH-HAAA yelp then , then My memory is muddy, what?s this river that I?m in? Hey New Orleans is sinkin, man And I dont want to swim Back to to close This is what is on the archive, from : [email protected] (Dave Hornidge) I'm not really sure if this is correct, but this is how I play it: The main riff looks like: E|----------------------------| B|----------------------------| G|----------------------------| D|--------2-----------0--0h2--| A|-----------2-----2----------| E|--0--0--------3-------------| I think the bass plays something similiar to this as well. The other catchy little riff looks something like: E|----------0-----------------------------------0--------------------------| B|--3p0--0-----3p0----------------------3p0--0-----3p0---------------------| G|------------------4p0--3p0--2p0-----------------------4p0--3p0--2p0------| D|---------------------------------2p0---------------------------------2---| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|----------0--------------------------------------------------------------| B|--3p0--0-----3p0---------------------------------------------------------| G|------------------4p0--3p0--2p0--4p0--3p0--2p0--2s4--4--4--4--4----------| D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
