Verse 1:
  Cadd9
I never knew
  Em               D              Cadd9
I never knew that everything was falling through
      Em        D                Cadd9
That everyone I knew was waiting on a queue
    Em       G               Am    C        D
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
                    Cadd9
But that's how it's got to be
     Em              D                Cadd9
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
      Em             D            Cadd9
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
      Em        G           Am      C        D
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears
Chorus:
Cadd9 G   Em        G
Everyone knows I'm in
Cadd9    G     Em      D
Over my head, over my head
     Cadd9  G               Em     G
With eight seconds left in overtime
      Am       G           Em  D   Cadd9
She's on your mind, she's on your mind
Em  D  Cadd9
Em  D
Verse 2: 
      Cadd9
Let's rearrange
   Em              D                Cadd9
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
    Em          D              Cadd9
To say that we agree and then never change
    Em   G            Am        C    D
Soften a bit until we all just get along
           Cadd9
But that's disregard
     Em           D              Cadd9
You find another friend and you discard
        Em       D            Cadd9
As you lose the argument in a cable car
     Em   G            Am    C     D
Hanging above as the canyon comes between
Chorus: 
Cadd9  G  Em        G
Everyone knows I'm in
Cadd9    G     Em      D
Over my head, over my head
     Cadd9  G               Em   G
With eight seconds left in overtime
      Am       G          Em   D   Cadd9
She's on your mind, she's on your mind (repeat verse)
Bridge: (Single Strum)
     Cadd9       Em       D           Cadd9
And suddenly I become a part of your past
       Em          D              Cadd9
I'm becoming the part that don't last
      Em    D           Am
I'm losing you and its effortless
Verse 3:
Cadd9                    Em            D
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground 
       Cadd9
In the throw around
      Em            D         Cadd9
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
        Em         D            Am
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves

Everyone knows I'm in
            
Over my head, over my head
With eight seconds left in overtime
      
She's on your mind, she's on your mind...
Everyone knows...   she's on your mind...
Everyone knows I'm in over my head
My head   I'm over my...
Chorus:
Cadd9 G   Em        G
Everyone knows I'm in
Cadd9    G     Em      D
Over my head, over my head
     Cadd9  G               Em     G
With eight seconds left in overtime
      Am       G          Em   D   Cadd9
She's on your mind, she's on your mind
Cadd9   Em    D   4X
End on Cadd9.
