Blizzard of ’77    (Capo 3)

Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
In the blizzard of ’77, the cars were just lumps on the snow
Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
And then later, tripping in 7-11, the shelves were stretching out of control
Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
On a plane ride the more it shakes, the more I have to let go
Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
Now the signals getting all mixed up, we’re always doing damage control


Em   D  G      
But in the middle of the night I worry, it’s blurry even without light
G/F#  Em  D   G  G/F#  Em  D
But in the middle of the night I worry, it’s blurry even without light


Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
I know I have got a negative edge, that’s why I sharpen all the others a lot
Emadd9    Em    Asus4  A  G   D
It’s like flowers or ladybugs, pretty weeds or red beetles with dots


Em   D  G      
But in the middle of the night I worry, it’s blurry even without light
G/F#  Em  D   G  G/F#  Em  D
But in the middle of the night I worry, it’s blurry even without light… light… light
G  G/F#  Em  D
light
G  G/F#  Em  D
I miss you more than I knew
G  G/F#  Em  D
I miss you more than I knew
G  G/F#  Em  D  G
I miss you more than I knew

	easily one of my favorites...wonderful voice

	I disagree Trainspotting. Nada Surf have wrote loads of great songs, and on the album Let Go, Killians Red is the best song in my opinion.

	The few people who I have talked to about this song always interpret the lines "I miss you more than I knew" as being about a specific person. It may be about someone, but I have always interpreted it as referring to youth. And they just personify Youth in the song. Like they are missing those times of their youth. The song is great. My favorite line is the 7-11 couplet as well, for the same reasons, Carles.

	how do you know he isnt tripping on mushrooms or acid or something when he says tripping at 711? i like that line too

No Picture nick Wanna Be	#8 by nick at Sep 30, 2007 at 11:27 PM EST
	maybe he misses someone whom he shared with all those things he lists at the beginning of the song, like the great 7-11 reference... after he says all these things, like when you write a letter, he says something to the person you're writing to...

	I do think that Blizzard of '77 is the best song on Let Go, with Paper Boats and Killian's Red coming pretty close though. Why is it the best song on the album? Well, listening to Nada's early songs, you could tell that they had not found their niche in music. There is a review of Let Go (I think on WMP) stating that Let Go is an appropriate title, because they finally "let go" of any notions of trying to fit in and instead just make the music that they want. And Blizzard of '77 is the perfect example of that. They could not have opened with a better track. It sounded so different from most any other stuff they had come out with at that time. It was jsut amazing to hear.

	"In the blizzard of '77 The cars were just lumps on the snow And then later trippin at 7-11 The shelves were stretching out of control" I'm nearly certain that this references the actual blizzard of 1977 that happened in Canada and Buffalo, NY.

	Does anybody have something to say about "but in the middle of the night I worry, it's blurry even without light"? I've always thought of it as meaning that he's crying? If that makes sense...and I wonder what it actually refers too

	My favourite lines are "And then later trippin at 7-11 The shelves were stretching out of control" Like, it just reminds me of late nights when you go to an actual 7-11 and you're making too much noise and goofing off, he captured it in a few words.
