Biography:
Split Enz was one of the most successful and longest running bands ever to emerge from New Zealand. Founded in 1972 by Tim Finn and Phil Judd, and with a variety of other members during its existence, eight songs Split Enz were listed in the APRA Top 100 New Zealand Songs of All Time, more than any other band. The band played its final show on 4 December 1984 in Auckland. One-off reunions took place subsequently, with the band reuniting in 1993 for its twentieth anniversary tour and once more for a tour in 2006.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Thought that I would put up my version of this beautiful song as it wasn't here already!
This is my personal guitar version. It obviously differs from the original version as
are used several different inversions of the chords through out the song on the piano.
I believe that this version sounds quite good and relatively close to the original
that it is a solo-guitar-version) when played with the listed chords. Enjoy :) Mads
Intro: |B(II)|A9|B(II)|A9|
B(II) A9
I fall apart when you're around,
When you're here I'm nowhere,
B(II) A9
I can't pretend that I'm not down,
I show it, I know it,
Dm Dm(II) C9(no5)
I've been a fool more than once more than twice,
Eb C9(no5) F/C B Emadd9
I'm gonna move to a new town where the people are nice.
Emadd9
I hope I never,
A9
I hope I never have to sigh again
Emadd9
I hope I never
Em9(no5) A9
I hope I never have to cry again.
D Dsus2 D
I still to want to beam and smile,
D7/C (B7)
Happiness is back in style,
Em7
I hope I never,
A9(II)
I hope I never have to see you again.
D F#7
Again. Again
It should be possible I know,
To see you without stress,
But I can see I'll have to go,
I'm changing my address,
My urge to cry I have failed to conceal,
Life is no fun when you're hunted by the things you feel.
I hope I never,
I hope I never have to sigh again
I hope I never
I hope I never have to cry again.
I'm for living, while you care,
I'm an optimistic man,
I hope I never,
I hope I never have to see you again.
Again. Oh oh…
Piano Intermezzo: |B(II)|A9|B(II)|A9|Dm|Dm(II)|C9(no5)|Eb|C9(no5)|F/C|B|Emadd9|
I hope I never,
I hope I never,
I hope I never, never, never, never, never, never,
I hope I never,
I hope I never have to see you again.
