Colin Hay é um músico escocês, mas conhecido por australiano, já que desde a adolescência morou na Austrália.
Seu nome de batismo é Colin James Hay, e ele nasceu em 1953 em Saltcoats, uma localidade da Escócia. A família se mudou para a Austrália quando ele tinha 14 anos. Nessa época, Colin começou a se interessar em tocar guitarra e cantar. Em 1978, junto com Ron Strykert (guitarra), Greg Ham (sax e flauta), John Rees (baixo) e Jerry Speiser (bateria), formaram o Men at Work, que se tornou um sucesso e um ícone do surf-rock.

[Chorus] AmD/F# And maybe you got lost at the five ways GEm Took a wrong turn just like always AmD/F#GC/GG7 Or did you just take the long way home?
[Break] CGFmaj7 CGFmaj7

Note II: Chords differ from version to version. But this is the jist of it. There's also version with capo 4th fret. Intro riff also differs depending on the version (one guitar, two guitars). This is my suggestion for one guitar (incorporate with strumming):
