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

Verse 1:

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

Chorus:

C majorC  G+G  E minorEm    G+G
Everyone knows I'm in
C majorC    G+G   E minorEm   D MajorD
Over my head, over my head
    C majorC  G+G       E minorEm   G+G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   A minorAm    G+G     E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

E minorEm G+G C majorC
E minorEm G+G


Verse 2:

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

Chorus:

C majorC  G+G  E minorEm    G+G
Everyone knows I'm in
C majorC    G+G   E minorEm   D MajorD
Over my head, over my head
    C majorC  G+G       E minorEm   G+G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   A minorAm    G+G     E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC
She's on your mind, she's on your mind


Bridge:

    C majorC     E minorEm    G+G      C majorC
And suddenly I become a part of your past
    E minorEm     G+G       C majorC
I'm becoming the part that don't last
   E minorEm  G+G      A minorAm
I'm losing you and its effortless


Verse 3:

C majorC            E minorEm      G+G
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
     C majorC
In the throw around
     E minorEm       G+G     C majorC
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
    E minorEm     G+G      A minorAm
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves


Bridge 2:

G+G     G/F#
Everyone knows I'm in
E minor 7Em7       C majorC
Over my head, over my head
    C majorC  G+G       E minorEm  G+G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   A minorAm    G+G     E minorEm D MajorD  C majorC   E minorEm
She's on your mind, she's on your mind...
G+G     C majorC  E minorEm     G+G    C majorC
Everyone knows...  she's on your mind...
E minorEm         G+G    C majorC
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
E minorEm       G+G
My head  I'm over my...


Chorus:

C majorC  G+G  E minorEm    G+G
Everyone knows I'm in
C majorC    G+G   E minorEm   D MajorD
Over my head, over my head
    C majorC  G+G       E minorEm   G+G
With eight seconds left in overtime
   A minorAm    G+G     E minorEm  D MajorD  C majorC
She's on your mind, she's on your mind

E minorEm  G+G  C majorC  4X


Ending:

C majorC
