Here's what i've got so far for "Fly":

Code:
Fly by the Tragically Hip
tabbed by SoylentGreg

Capo 2nd Fret

Intro: C

C               G         F  
Seventy days to cross the ocean
C               G              F
Seventy nights, no one's gonna hear me fall
     C                G         F          F                  G
like Freddy Mercury I sometimes wished i'd never been born at all, that's right


Chorus

Am        F
Fly-i-i-i-igh
C                           F
'Cause there's no why in gettin' beaten up by
Am           F
A guy-i-i-i-i-igh
G                
who cries before he fights

(on subsequent choruses, when he does the "fly" three times, it's just Am-F each time)

Bridge(not sure about this): Dm-G-C-G, Dm-G-C-F-G

That's what i've got so far, if anybody can fill in the gaps.

There’s a world container with your name on it
It aint a billion ways to go berzerk
When the country quits on you it must be dinner
And the Himmler on this one is there’s no desert

F G
He’s the one who couldn’t imagine
All the people living life in peace

C G/B Am7 G5
Yooouuu, good news, you get to vanish
Go to Cleveland beyond Indy smash

F G
The good news is now you’re smaller
The bad news is you can be smaller than that

C G/B Am7 G5
Go suck some souls, be a reader get used
Laugh at a funeral or two
Laugh and laugh till all the chameleons turn black
Laugh and laugh till your told please don’t come back

F G
Then think incredulous, say I just can’t believe
How’d it get this late so early

C G/B Am7 G5
Say aint life a grand and I meant all your all
And drop into your haunted bunk

F G
Go to your touchless times
Out where the waters join
Go past the no tractions past this point sign

Am G
What you’ll find there are all flaws in progress
F G Am G
Where all songs are one song and that song is don’t forget
F G C
Yea all songs are one song and that song is don’t forget


C G/B Am7 G5

F G
Yea I faked incredulous and I just can’t believe
How’d it get this late so early

C G/B Am7 G5
Said aint life a grand and I meant all of your all
I dropped into my haunted bunk

F G
Been to the touchless times
Out where the waters join
been past the no tractions past this point sign

Am G
what we have here are all flaws in progress

F G Am G
Where all songs are one song and that song is don’t forget
Where all songs are one song and that song is don’t forget

Where all songs are one song and that song is don't forget

KINGSTON, Ont. - Canadian rock icons The Tragically Hip, beloved in their home country but ignored south of the border, are expected to finally crack the American market this month thanks to a new CD featuring wall-to-wall covers of Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Bryan Adams, and Nickelback.

"We've had a lot of success over the years, with some impressive albums and a lot of cool Canadian fans," said guitarist Robby Baker. "But deep down inside we've always known we were failures. If you don't make it in the U.S., you're not really a great band."

Tired of the way their intelligent and independent-sounding arena rock was being met with confusion south of the border, the band enlisted the help of superstar producer Guy Roche, who had worked with such stars as Dion and Christina Aguilera.

"Guy was tremendous," Baker said. "At first, we tried to do our own tunes, but we were having a hard time sucking the originality out of them. Then Guy says, 'You know, all the really big performers let someone else write their songs.' There was a click moment, you know? We knew this would be big."

Lead singer Gord Downie said working with Roche was inspiring. "Before, I got caught up on how to rhyme words like 'restraint' and 'sophisticated.' But after hearing the oeuvre of singers like Dion and Twain, I realized the power of the word 'love.' Glove, dove, above, these songs write themselves."

It hasn't been a completely smooth transition away from the band's old sound, however. Downie said learning the dance steps to Who's bed have your boots been under? had the group at wit's end. But in the end, their love of Twain's music saw them through.

Baker said the band was deeply touched by the results.

"When we first heard the recording of You're still the one, we all started to cry. We're sure most of our fans will cry, too."
