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 fingers and worked out the chords for myself.

[Verse]
             
Tell me all th

              
e things you w

      
ould change
             
I don't preten

              
d to know what

      
 you want
            
When you come 

              
around and spi

     
n my top
             
Time and again

            
, time and aga

in
             
No fire where 

          
I lit my spark
             
I am not afrai

          
d of the dark
            
Where your wor

             
ds devour my h


eart
              
And put me to 

             
shame, put me 

   
to shame


[Chorus]
             
Your seven wor

        
lds collide
             
Whenever I am 

       
by your side
             
Dust from a di

      
stant sun
             
Will shower ov

       
er everyone

[Verse]
             
You're still s

              
o young to tra

       
vel so far
             
Old enough to 

             
know who you a


re
            
Wise enough to

           
 carry the sca

rs
             
Without any bl

              
ame, there's n

         
o-one to blame
             
It's easy to f

              
orget what you

  
 learned
             
Waiting for th

              
e thrill to re

 
turn
            
Feeling your d

      
esire burn
              
And drawn to t

   
he flame


[Chorus]
             
Your seven wor

        
lds collide
             
Whenever I am 

       
by your side
             
Dust from a di

      
stant sun
             
Will shower ov

       
er everyone
             
Dust from a di

      
stant sun
             
Will shower ov

    
er everyone


[Bridge]
            
And I'm lying 

             
on the table w

             
ashed out in t

         
he flood
           
Like a Christi

             
an fearing ven

              
geance from ab

          
ove
            
I don't preten

             
d to know what

      
 you want

But I offer love...

[Chorus]
             
Seven worlds w

    
ill collide
             
Whenever I am 

       
by your side
             
Dust from a di

      
stant sun
             
Will shower ov
