Saturday Sun Chords & Tabs
Crowded House
Saturday Sun (acoustic)
Tabbed by Neil Parry

This arrangement is based on the acoustic arrangement shown on You Tube
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXzXxxfVrcA
I've simplified the tab to just show the chord that needs to be played and the
melody lines to be picked out,
You can work out the strumming easy enough. It plays well and sounds good.

its a saturday sun
and the game is still on
and the waiting is done
its all about you
as it calls out your name
on a hill far away
hes looking down from above
its all about to change
hes insane, callin on the day
til the clouds get blown away
well inside his mind
lie all the space and time
hes been waitin for the signs
its a saturday sun
and the madness is done
and the night has been sung
of existence
and my head is alright
was the darkest of nights
and he had me unsung
callin on the day
til the clouds get blown away
well inside his mind
lie all the space and time
hes been waitin for the signs
lookin for a revalation maybe
or visions of the underworld
when you saw the first light, then you know its alright
its a saturday sun
and the game is still on
and the waiting is done
Solo (chorus chords)
and tiny waves
colours up the sky
make the darkness come to life
memories inside his heart
of everything he wants to know
of everyplace he has to go
