Long Time Running - Tragically Hip

Does your mother tell you things Long, long when I'm gone Who you talking to Is she telling you I'm the one It's a grave mistake And I'm wide awake

Drive-in's rained out Weatherman wet fingers the sky

He pokes it out He pulls it in He don't know why It's the same mistake

Chorus It's been a long time running It's been a long time coming It's well worth the wait

We don't go anywhere

Just on trips We haven't seen a thing We still don't know where it is It's a safe mistake

It's been a long time running It's been a long time coming

Well, well it's all the same mistake Dead to rights and wide awake I'll drop a caribou I'll tell on you I'll tell on you

You got a boat load of nerve But I would say you've been told You work me against my friends And you'll get left out in the cold It's the same mistake

Chorus

This is the first time I post something here, so all comments are welcome. I know this song only from a Dutch radio-show where all kind of bands come and play, sort of semi-unplugged, so it's maybe a little different from the original (which I don't really know). This song also appears on a CD of this radio-show: 2 Meter Sessies, Vol. 3. (Radio Records VCD 474724 2, distribution by Sony). On these CD's (Vol. 5 is out now) are a lot of famous bands, playing very-good-to-play-yourself-acousticly versions of well- or less well-known songs. I'm planning to post a few more if it's appreciated, let me know.
