Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Colin Hay - Overkill (Acoustic in D)
Colin Hay has played this song SEVERAL different ways. This particular version
is based on the version performed on Park City Television which can be found on
YouTube ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuXLElEDEKI ).
Unlike the Men At Work and Scrubs versions which start in E, this one starts in D.
Rather than being exact, I tried to put together a version that sounds very similar
but is fairly easy to play.
Don't let the chords scare you away 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 E strings and mute the rest.
Another tip...For the transition from F# to F#7 in the chorus
all you have to do is lift your pinky.
Enjoy!

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