Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over


The other versions don't seem to be quite right, and I don't think they're in the
right key - to play along to the version of the song on the CD I have, you'd need
a capo on the first fret to play it in D major.

Seeing as my guitar/capo combination doesn't work too well on the first fret,
I've transposed it into C, so that it can be played with a capo on the 3rd fret
(or put down by a tone and a half, making it easier to sing along to!).

Csus2      Csus2          Am          Am   
  There is freedom within,   there is freedom without

F                                    E
  Try to catch the deluge in a paper cup

C           C             Am     Am          
  There's a battle ahead,   many battles are lost

F                          F
  But you'll never see the end of the road

             E               E
while you're travelling with me


F        G             C          Am
Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over

F        G                C           Am
Hey now, hey now When the world comes in

F          G         C                 Am
They come, they come   To build a wall between us

F       F              F   G
We know they won't win


Csus2                   Am
  Now I'm towing my car, there's a hole in the roof

F                                             E
  My possessions are causing me suspicion but there's no proof

C                    Am 
  In the paper today  tales of war and of waste

F                                     E
  But you turn right over to the T.V. page


F        G             C          Am
Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over

F        G                C           Am
Hey now, hey now When the world comes in

F          G         C                 Am
They come, they come   To build a wall between us

F                        G
We know they won't win

Csus2                   Am
  Now I'm walking again   to the beat of a drum

F                                   E
  And I'm counting the steps to the door of your heart

C                        Am
  Only the shadows ahead   barely clearing the roof

F                                         E
Get to know the feeling of liberation and relief


F        G             C          Am
Hey now, hey now Don't dream it's over

F        G                C           Am
Hey now, hey now When the world comes in

F          G         C                 Am
They come, they come   To build a wall between us

F                        G
Don't ever let them win
