Distant Sun
By Neil Finn / Crowded House
The other versions posted never seemed quite right to me. Today, I
found a cover version someone recorded and posted on YouTube. The
chords sound much closer to the original CH version, so I watched
his finges and worked out the chords for myself. I'm not entirely
certain about some of the chord *names* (I used a chord name lookup
tool), but the fingerings seem pretty right. Enjoy!
Sounds good with capo at 2nd Fret

Intro:
| | | | | | |
Tell me all the things you would change
I don't pretend to know what you want
When you come around and spin my top
Time and again, time and again
No fire where I lit my spark
I am not afraid of the dark
Where your words devour my heart
And put me to shame, put me to shame
Chorus:
Your seven worlds collide
Whenever I am by your side
Dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

You're still so young to travel so far
Old enough to know who you are
Wise enough to carry the scars
Without any blame, there's no-one to blame
It's easy to forget what you learned
Waiting for the thrill to return
Feeling your desire burn
And drawn to the flame
(Chorus, then repeat second phrase)
Dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone
Bridge:
And I'm lying on the table washed out in the flood
Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above
I don't pretend to know what you want
But I offer love...

Seven worlds will collide
Whenever I am by your side
Dust from a distant sun
Will shower over everyone

As time slips by ...
