Medicine Hat
By: Son Volt


Capo 1st

Intro: A augmentedA E MajorE BB x2

E MajorE             A augmentedA
There will be droughts and days inundated
F# minorF#m         BB
Unveilings free from saturation
G# minorG#m          A augmentedA
Departures raised with no masquerading.
E MajorE              A augmentedA
There will be teachers that die by their own hand
F# minorF#m          BB
Pundits that push head long for atonement
G# minorG#m          A augmentedA
Friends and followers devoted to living.
E MajorE              A augmentedA
There will be watchers that plot from in confines
F# minorF#m          BB
And those committed to society's circles
F# minorF#m         BB
Unwary cogs with no cadence or virtue.
C# minorC#m                A augmentedA
There will be right, there will be wrong

Chorus:

A augmentedA      E MajorE      BB
Drop of the hat and its already started
A augmentedA     E MajorE      BB
Just like that and the deed is done
A augmentedA    E MajorE       BB
What I'd give for that hat to be medicine
A augmentedA      E MajorE     BsusBsus   BB
The time is now to be on the run

E MajorE          A augmentedA
There will be machi nations unforeseen
F# minorF#m     BB
Sleepwalking sense from a bad dream
G# minorG#m     A augmentedA
No promenade walk in the parkway.
E MajorE            A augmentedA
There will be catchwords filled with infection
F# minorF#m     BB
circulars to prop up occasion
G# minorG#m       A augmentedA
A majorA golden mean to guide the footsteps.
E MajorE            A augmentedA
There will be levels on high hills that appraise
F# minorF#m           BB
there will be unchanging certainties
F# minorF#m       BB
barometers that follow the stampede.
C# minorC#m                A augmentedA
There will be right, there will be wrong.

Chorus:

A augmentedA      E MajorE      BB
Drop of the hat and its already started
A augmentedA     E MajorE      BB
Just like that and the deed is done
A augmentedA    E MajorE       BB
What I'd give for that hat to be medicine
A augmentedA      E MajorE     BsusBsus   BB
The time is now to be on the run

Solo: E MajorE A augmentedA F# minorF#m BB G# minorG#m A augmentedA   A augmentedA E MajorE BB x2

E MajorE             A augmentedA
There will be signposts of indication
F# minorF#m       BB
Semephore ghost signs and warnings
G# minorG#m         A augmentedA
Hailstone halos and country blues wailings.
E MajorE             A augmentedA
There will be strains that break out of straight time
F# minorF#m         BB
But paid with grace, taking roads to the same place
G# minorG#m         A augmentedA
With consequence to repay what's been given.
E MajorE            A augmentedA
There will be layers of means to an end
F# minorF#m      BB
drawn out days before resolution
F# minorF#m         BB
dregs will rain down from all directions.
C# minorC#m                A augmentedA
There will be right, there will be wrong.

Chorus:

A augmentedA      E MajorE      BB
Drop of the hat and its already started
A augmentedA     E MajorE      BB
Just like that and the deed is done
A augmentedA    E MajorE       BB
What I'd give for that hat to be medicine
A augmentedA      E MajorE     BsusBsus   BB
The time is now to be on the run
