THE TRAGICAL HIP - AHEAD BY CENTURY (1996)

[CT #0][0]
[INTRO]
[RIFF] 

D
  First we'd climb a tree
D
  and maybe then we'd talk
D
  or sit silently
D
  and listen to our thoughts
Cadd9
  with illusions of sommmmmmeday
D
  casting a golden light
C
  no dress rehearsal, 
D
  this is our life
  
[RIFF]

D                                  Cadd9
  that’s where the hornet stung me
                       D
and I had a feverish dream
                  Cadd9
with revenge and doubt
                        D
tonight, we smoke them out
 

A                            G/B                       
  You are ahead by a century,   you are ahead by a century,
A                            G                       
  You are ahead by a century.
  
[RIFF] x4 

D
  Stare in the morning shroud
D
  and then the day began
D 
  I til-ted your cloud
D
  you til-ted my hand

Cadd9
  rain falls in real time 
D
  and-rain fell through the night
C                     D
  no dress rehearsal,   this is our life
 
D 
 
D                                  Cadd9
  that's where the hornet stung me
                       D
and I had a feverish dream
                  Cadd9
with revenge and doubt
                        D
tonight, we smoke them out
