"Scared"

Words and music by Burton Cummings

[intro] DD EmEm F#F# GG EE AA D-E F#-G

D Em F# G

Said I'm scared, an' lord I'm scared, I'm terrified

Em A D-Em F#-G

Never been much on religion but I sure enough would like to hear the call

D Em F# G

I'm scared lordy, lord I'm shakin' I'm petrified

Em A D-Em F#-G

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

D A \\ F# B A D-Em F#-G

I heard the chior singin' something about good will toward man and even sleepin in heavanly peace

D A \\F# B

Stopped by to see St. Thomas on a cold and dreary New York afternoon

Em A

Something in the air was Oh so rare, I don't know what it was but I know that it's still right there

D Em F# G

Scared lordy lord I'm shakin I'm terrified

Em A D-Em F#-G

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

Livin in confusion, searching for truth that I never found

I needed something to really believe

Looked toward the heaven, On a dark and stormy winter afternoon

Something in the air was oh so rare, I'm not really sure what it was but I know for sure that it's still

there

Scared, Hey,ey,ey,ey,ey,ey I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

Ohhhhohhhohh

And I'm scared you know I'm shakin' I'm laying awake thinking about it now I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough would like to hear the call

Come on now gimmee a sign you're listening to me,

You hear me talking, you hear me crying it's confusing to me lord I'm terrified

Never been much on religion but I sure enough just fell down on my knees

Ohhhhohhhohh

The trick to this song is; some parts sound better played in first position and others you'll need to play

the fretboard

to get the best sound. If you can get a copy of it on tape or CD you'll see what I mean.

For those of you who missed the Burton Cummings "Intimate and Interactive" on Canada's Much More Music station

on Monday Nov. 1, He had Randy on with him playing some guitar and also indicated that they were seriously

considering the possibilty of a "Guess Who" reunion tour this winter!!

Have Fun
