VERSE 1:
Am Amb6 Am4 Am
No time, no place, to talk about the weather
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
The promise of love is hard to ignore
Am Amb6 Am4 Am
You said the chance wasn't getting any better
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
The labour of love is ours to endure
Am Amb6 Am4 Am
Highest branch on the apple tree
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
It was my favourite place to be
Am Amb6 Am4 Am
I could hear them breaking free
Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
But they could not see me

I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
F F G G C C Am Am
It feels like nothing matters in our private universe

Am Am Am Am Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C
VERSE 2:
I have all I want, is that simple enough?
A whole lot more I'm thinking of
Every night about six o'clock
Birds come back to the pond to talk
Talk to me, birds talk to me
If I go down on my knees
CHORUS 2:
I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
It feels like nothing matters in our private universe
Feels like nothing matters in our private universe
BRIDGE 2:
Am Am Am Am
C C D5 D5
And it's a pleasure that I have known
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Oooooh...
C C D5 D5 D5 D5
And it's a treasure that I have gained
Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7 Fmaj7
Oooooh...

And it's a pleasure that I have known
Am Amb6 Am4 Am Am G6/A Fmaj7/A C

VERSE 3:
It's a tight squeeze but I won't let go
Time is on the table and the dinner's cold

I will run for shelter, endless summer lift the curse
Feels like nothing matters in our private universe

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CROWDED HOUSE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
