Over My Head (Cable Car) - The Fray - "How to Save a Life"

Verse 1:

  C
I never knew
  Em       G       C
I never knew that everything was falling through
    Em    G        C
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
  Em    G        Am  Em    D
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
           C
But that's how it's got to be
    Em       G        C
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
   Em       G       C
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
   Em    G      Am   Em    D
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears

Chorus:

C  G  Em    G
Everyone knows I'm in
C    G   Em   D
Over my head, over my head
    C  G       Em   G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   Am    G     Em  D  C
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

Em G C
Em G


Verse 2:

     C
Let's rearrange
  Em       G        C
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
  Em      G       C
To say that we agree and then never change
  Em  G      Am    Em  D
Soften a bit until we all just get along
      C
But that's disregard
   Em      G       C
You find another friend and you discard
    Em     G     C
As you lose the argument in a cable car
   Em  G      Am  Em   D
Hanging above as the canyon comes between


Chorus:

C  G  Em    G
Everyone knows I'm in
C    G   Em   D
Over my head, over my head
    C  G       Em   G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   Am    G     Em  D  C
She's on your mind, she's on your mind


Bridge:

    C     Em    G      C
And suddenly I become a part of your past
    Em     G       C
I'm becoming the part that don't last
   Em  G      Am
I'm losing you and its effortless


Verse 3:

C            Em      G
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
     C
In the throw around
     Em       G     C
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
    Em     G      Am
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  G       Em  G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   Am    G     Em D  C   Em
She's on your mind, she's on your mind...
G     C  Em     G    C
Everyone knows...  she's on your mind...
Em         G    C
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
Em       G
My head  I'm over my...


Chorus:

C  G  Em    G
Everyone knows I'm in
C    G   Em   D
Over my head, over my head
    C  G       Em   G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   Am    G     Em  D  C
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

Em  G  C  4X


Ending:

C
