Distant Sun


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 C 332010 Fmaj7 x33210 Am 002210 D9 200210 F 133211 E 022100 G 320003 Dm7 xx0211 Fsus2 133111 Intro: C | Fmaj7 | C | Fmaj7 | C | Fmaj7 | C | Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 Tell me all the things you would change C Fmaj7 I don't pretend to know what you want Am D9 When you come around and spin my top F E Time and again, time and again C Fmaj7 No fire where I lit my spark C Fmaj7 I am not afraid of the dark Am D9 Where your words devour my heart F E And put me to shame, put me to shame Chorus: G Dm7 Your seven worlds collide F G C Whenever I am by your side G Dm7 Dust from a distant sun F G C Will shower over everyone Fmaj7| C | Fmaj7 C Fmaj7 You're still so young to travel so far C Fmaj7 Old enough to know who you are Am D9 Wise enough to carry the scars F E Without any blame, there's no-one to blame C Fmaj7 It's easy to forget what you learned C Fmaj7 Waiting for the thrill to return Am D9 Feeling your desire burn F And drawn to the flame (Chorus, then repeat second phrase) G Dm7 Dust from a distant sun F G Will shower over everyone Bridge: Am D9 F And I'm lying on the table washed out in the flood Am D9 F Like a Christian fearing vengeance from above Am D9 F I don't pretend to know what you want But I offer love...
