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.

This work is owned entirely by Split Enz. A band ahead of their time.
I've always loved this song and chord progression, and finally it is on Guitar Tabs for all Enz fans.

Hiding in the wings forever
D G
We'll take the stage, cos it's now or never
D Gm
And the whole thing reeks of cheap striptease
D Gm
The matinee idylls they all fall to their knees
Em A
It's not all first nights at all
C F Em
There's nothing more dull than a curtain call
D G (x2)
[Get on with it!}
D G
Playing Romeo, you make your debut (Ha!)
D G
Rose red cheeks but your face is all blue
Em A
It's not all bouquets & white crayons
C F C
They're going to laugh when you look down
Em A
I'm going to ask you if you want to be a chorus boy
F#m E
You can mime the tragedy while we all sing along
