The Smiths - I Know Its Over


    C                                                Am   
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F   G        C
   and as I climb into an empty bed 
          Am
oh well, enough said
F G          F              G
  I know it's over still I cling
F                          G         F      G F
I don't know where else I can go, mother

    C                                               Am
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F G         C
  see, the sea wants to take me

the knife wants to slit me
  Am
do you think you can help me?
F    G     C
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
                              Am
handsome groom, give her room
F     G       C
loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
                          Am
although she needs you more than she loves you
F G             F              G           
And I know it's over still I cling
F                          G  
I don't know where else I can go
F                    G               F     
it's over, it's over, it's over


            C
I know it's over
              F            
and it never really began
G               F       G       Am
but in my heart it was so real
F        G                          F G
and you even spoke to me and said:

 
C                                               Am         F G
If you're so funny then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                 Am       F G
and if you're so clever then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                              Am          F G
if you're so very entertaining then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                  Am    F G   
if you're so very good looking why do you sleep alone tonight?


             C                                  
I know   cause tonight is just like any other night
                           Am         F  G
that's why you're on your own tonight
             C                    
with your triumphs and your charms
         Am
while they are in each other's arms"


F         G        F
It's so easy to laugh
                  G
it's so easy to hate
             F                      G      
it takes strength to be gentle and kind
Fmaj9                G
it's over, over, over


F        G         F
It's so easy to laugh
                  G
it's so easy to hate
         F                      G
it takes guts to be gentle and kind
Fmaj9                G
it's over, over, over

         C           F   G
Love is natural and real
    F       G        Am
but not for you, my love
    F           G
not tonight my love
F G      C           F
love is natural and real
G    F              G            Em      F G
but not for such as you and I, my love
 
    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   FG  Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   F G 
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   F G 
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   F G 
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
    C            F        G            F    G   Am  F G   F G 
Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

repeat to fade....
