Start Jamming...
Okay, Crowded House, Don't Dream It's Over.
We're going to start with the capo on the 3rd fret.
We're going to start with a [Bb] Csus2.
So we'll go from a Csus2 to
[B] a [Gb]
[Bbm] C7sus2 to a [F] C7sus4.
[Db] So again, [Ebm] Csus2,
[Bbm] C7sus2, [Ebm] [Db] C7sus4.
[Eb] Okay?
[Bbm] [Bb]
[Eb] As far as strumming pattern, I'm just
[D] going
[Ebm] Down, up, [D] [Ebm]
[Bb] down, up, down, down, down, [Eb] down, up, down, [Gb] up, down, down, up, down, [F] down.
I'm not positive on the [Ebm] strumming pattern, but I know it's [Db] pretty close there.
You can [Eb] improvise and do what makes it easier for you.
So that's your intro part.
[Bbm]
[Eb]
When you're finally done [Bbm] with this, [Eb]
you're going to go to the verse [C] part.
Which again, it's [Bb] Csus2 to [G]
an Asus2 to
[Gb] an [Ab] Fmaj7 [G] to an E.
[C] Now in this [B] strumming pattern here, [Ebm] I'm just going down, up, down, down, [G]
up, down, down, up, [Ab] down, down, up.
[G]
Okay?
Again, [Abm] whatever's easiest for you.
So [Eb] that's your verse.
[G] [Ab]
[G]
[F] When you're finally [C] done with that verse, [Ab]

[Ab]
[Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] Then you're going to hang on to the Fmaj7, [Bb] G.
[Ebm]
Then it's back to the next verse.
[G]
So a lot [Bb] of repetition between that [Eb] there.
That's your changes for your verse, your chorus.
The only other major change when it goes to the solo at that point,
you're still going to use those same chords used [G] for the [Bb] verse.
[G]
[Ab]
[G]
And I believe he does it [Bb] a total of two times in progression.
[A]
And that's your solo part.
[Ab]
[G]
Then it goes [Ab] Ab, [Eb] C.
