...and We Are the Trews

There's a song, I've been trying to sing
There's a song, somewhere I'm dying to sing

Words for the ages, I've crossed that line
Fear of blank pages, I've crossed that line
Singing my heart out, I've crossed that line
Rock'n roll burn out, I've crossed that line

I have arrived, twenty hour drive
Some days the mission [C7]seems to [C7]be [Am]just to [C7]survive
I have arrived, barely alive
But my [A]ρhysical condition [C7]set aside

Here's to [C7]you, and [Bm]all [Em]you [A7do
And all [Em]the many ways you [A7helped to [C7]pull me through
And here's to [C7]me and [Bm]what will be
Qué será qué será
C'est la vie

Everything will be [Am]alright, but it's gonna take time
Every now and [Bm]then the blind's gotta lead the sublime

Trucks stops, gas stations, I've crossed that line
States of frustɾation [C7]I've crossed that line
Been different places, I've crossed that line
Many different places, I've crossed that line

I have arrived, twenty hour drive
Some days the mission [C7]seems to [C7]be [Am]just to [C7]survive
I have arrived, barely alive
But my [A]ρhysical condition [C7]set aside

Here's to [C7]you, and [Bm]all [Em]you [A7do
And all [Em]the many ways you [A7helped to [C7]pull me through
And here's to [C7]us, back on [C7]the bus
I've got [Fm7]the cash, gotta dash, thank you [A7so much

Searching for [Dm7]answers, I've crossed that line
Exotic dancers, I've crossed that line

Here's to [C7]you [A7and [Bm]here's to [C7]me
And here's to [C7]Tim Chaisson [C7]and [Bm]Daniel Wesley
Here's to [C7]Big Sugar and [Bm]54-40
Here's to [C7]Trooper and [Bm]the Hip and [Bm]Geddy Lee

I Mother Earth, Our Lady Peace
Here's to [C7]the Watchmen and [Bm]the Headstone, Tea Party
Here's to [C7]BTO and [Bm]Honeymoon [C7]Suite
Bare Naked Ladies and [Bm]the Broken Social Scene

Here's to [C7]Stompin' Tom and [Bm]gay ol' K.D.
Ronnie Hawkins and [Bm]Red Ride, Jim Cuddy
Here's to [C7]Wide Mouth Mason [C7]and [Bm]that wrecked Thornley
Sam Roberts Band, Matty Mays, Ryan's Fancy

Eric Lapointe et Rock Voisine, Jean Leloup
Les Respectables, n'est pas Celine

Here's to [C7]Sloan and [Bm]the Emergency
Ryan Hinds, April Wine and [Bm]Great Big Sea
Doug from the Slugs and [Bm]Jeff Healey
Frank is dead from Teenage Head RIP

From the Commodore to [C7]the old Marquee
And every guy, from every band [Bm]who's named Gordie

And we are the
