Overkill Chords by Colin Hay

[Start]

[Verse]
            A       
I can't get to sleep
C               G               
■ I think about the implications
             A       
Of diving in too deep
C              G                
■ And possibly the complications
G                  
Especially at night
C         G    D         
■ I worry over situations
               A      
I know will be alright
C                   G           Bm
■ Perhaps it's just imagination ■ 
          G      A        
Day after day it reappears
Bm                                Asus4     A7  
■  Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
Bsus4  F#sus4 F#7        F#m  G   
Ghosts ■      appear and fade away
A Asus4 A D
■ ■     ■ ■
              A   F#m   
Alone between the sheets
C             G            Em D
■ Only brings exasperation ■  ■
                  F#m        
It's time to walk the streets
C           G           Em D
■ Smell the desperation ■  ■
         F#m                   C
At least there's pretty lights ■
                   G                D
And though there's little variation ■
   A             A7    C      G        Em
It nullifies the night ■ from overkill ■ 
Bm           G      A         Asus4 A
■  Day after day it reappears ■     ■

F#sus4 F#7        G        
Ghosts appear and fade away

■ Come back another day

Ghosts appear and fade away ■
