Come back anothe---r day
[Solo] played over the verse/chorus-chords
[verse 2]
I can't get to sleep
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications
Especially at night
I worry over situations
I know will be alright
It's just overkill
[Chorus]
Day after day it reappears
Night after night my heartbeat, shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
And thats about it. If u've seen the series scrubs they play this song in
episode 1 (season 2). There he, Colin Hay, takes different chords then I've
tabbed down here but it sounds the same anyway..so enjoy!
ps. this is my first tab so be nice ^^
