Overkill (Men at Work/Colin Hay) "acoustic version"
(see chords below)
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be alright
Perhaps it's just imagination
Day after day it reappears
?1 ?2
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
?1 ?2
Ghosts appear and fade away
Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation
It's time to walk the streets
Smell the desperation
At least there's pretty lights
And though there's little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill
Day after day it reappears
?1 ?2
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
?1 ?2
Ghosts appear and fade away, come back another day
(INTRO)
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations that
I know will be alright
It's just overkill
Day after day it reappears
?1 ?2
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
?1 ?2
Ghosts appear and fade away
?1 ?2 (hold )
Ghosts appear and fade away
