I never knew
Em (½) G (½) C
I never knew that everything was falling through
Em (½) G (½) C
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
Em (½) G (½) Am (½) G (½) D
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
C
But that's how it's got to be
Em (½) G (½) C
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
Em (½) G (½) C
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
Em (½) G (½) Am (½) G (½) D
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears
Chorus:
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
Everyone knows I'm in
C (½) G (½) Em (½) D (½)
Over my head, over my head
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
With eight seconds left in overtime
C (½) G (½) Em (½) D (½)
She's on your mind, she's on your
C Em (½) G (½)
mind
C Em (½) G (½)
Verse 2:
C
Let's rearrange
Em (½) G (½) C
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Em (½) G (½) C
To say that we agree and then never change
Em (½) G (½) Am (½) G (½) D
Soften a bit until we all just get along
C
But that's disregard
Em (½) G (½) C
You find another friend and you discard
Em (½) G (½) C
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Em (½) G (½) Am (½) G (½) D
Hanging above as the canyon comes between
Chorus x2
Bridge (hold each chord):
C Em (½) G (½) C
And suddenly I become a part of your past
Em (½) G (½) C
I'm becoming the part that don't last
Em (½) G (½) Am (2)
I'm losing you and it's effortless
C
Without a sound
Em (½) G (½) C
we lose sight of the ground in the throw around
Em (½) G (½) C
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
Em (½) G (½) Am (2)
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves
Bridge 2:
G G/F#
Everyone knows I'm in
Em7 C
Over my head, over my head
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
With eight seconds left in over - time
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
She's on your mind, she's on your
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
mind... Everyone
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
knows... she's on your
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
mind... Everyone knows I'm in over my
C (½) G (½) Em (½) G (½)
head I'm in over my head I'm over my...
Chorus
C Em (½) G (½) x4
End on C
