Biografía:
Colin Hay, el que fuera vocalista y parte del alma de Men at Work, que ahora en solitario se ha embarcado en un proyecto con un sonido limpio y acústico, capaz de transmitir mucho más de lo que se podría presuponer en este estilo musical.
Pese a sus desavenencias con el resto del grupo, sobre todo con el guitarrista Ron Stryker, decidió continuar con el mundo de la música que tantas alegrías le dió y al que supo corresponder convirtiéndose junto a su banda

Colin Hay - Overkill (Acoustic in E)
Colin Hay has played this song in at least three different ways, not counting the
Men At Work version(s). This particular version is based on the the Scrubs episode
as well as many of his live performances on YouTube.
Note that when he plays this live the guitar is tuned standard. The Scrubs version,
however, seems to be tuned 1/2 step down. He also plays an Acoustic version in D
which I also transcribed in a separate tab.
Don't let the chords scare you on this one. Follow the chord chart below for
best results. If you want to make the verses even easier you can use your
first finger and pinky to play the fingerings on the D and A strings and mute the rest.
Another tip...For the transition from G# to G#7 in the chorus just lift your pinky.

[Verse]
E E7
I can't get to sleep
D D7
I think about the implications
E E7
Of diving in too deep
D D7
And possibly the complications
E E7
Especially at night
D D7
I worry over situations
E E7
I know will be alright
D D7
Perhaps its just my imagination
[Chorus]
C#m Bsus4 B
Day after day it reappears
C#m Bsus4 B
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
G# G#7 A
Ghosts appear and fade away
Bsus4 B
[Verse]
E E7
Alone between the sheets
D D7
Only brings exasperation
E E7
It's time to walk the streets
D D7
Smell the desperation
E E7
At least there's pretty lights
D D7
And though there's little variation
E E7
It nullifies the night
D D7
from overkill
[Chorus]
C#m Bsus4 B
Day after day it reappears
C#m Bsus4 B
Night after night my heartbeat shows the fear
G# G#7 A
Ghosts appear and fade away
Bsus4 B
Come back another da-a-ay
