Get Back Again Lyrics & Chords By The Tragically Hip

what's the deal with your dad?
he don't even know my name
didn't know he'd be back, didn't know we'd been bad
no one stayed to share the blame
i didn't mean to do that
she won't even come around
everytime i looked back, didn't realize that
i was better off than now
mothers came and cried for Abel
brother Cain survived the century's end
all the time that i thought was my friend
be all right till we get back again
heaven knows you are right (and they will never drag you down)*
and they will never drag you down (there ain't time to lose sight)
there ain't time to lose sight, getting lost in the light
is more than never being found
mothers came and cried for Abel
brother Cain survived the century's end
all the time that i thought was my friend
be all right till we get back again
we never could go back (and i could never leave my home)
and i could never leave my home (why'd they change a face like that?)
why'd they change a face like that?
if i'd never seen you, i could always dream that
i'd be better off alone
mothers came and cried for Abel
brother Cain survived the century's end
all the time that i thought was my friend
be all right till we get back again.
