Intro: 
D/F#  A7sus4/E  G/B  D   x2 
Em   D    Bm    Em 

 
Em          D              Bm           Em 
Wakin' up, feeling rough, totally stressed 
Em             D              Bm        Em 
Every day is a day at a time  step by step 
Em          D            Bm       Em 
Hit a wall, took a fall  to a new depth 
Em            D          Bm          Em 
Count to ten, focus then Take a deep breath 
D                  C                  G                              D 
In a world that is close to breakin'  I thought that you were my friend 
D                  C              G                  D                            D7 
In a world that is full of hatin' and about to descend  I just smile and pretend 
G                   C                    D                       G 
I'm a million miles away from it all and let it go right over my head 
G                     C                   D                       G 
Let 'em chase and the winner take all and let it go right over my head 
 G      Em       D    Bm      Em 
Over my head, yeah    Over my head 
Em    D       Bm          Em 
Oh              Over my head 
 

 
Em          D       Bm           Em 
Everywhere, everyone questioning me 
Em            D                 Bm        Em 
Are you ill? Are you well? Do you like being free? 
D                C 
Didn't know you were close to breaking 
G                        D                            C 
So you thought it should end; left it all for a new location 
G                         D                       D7 
So you could start up again; so keep keep smilin' till then 
G                              C 
Right now I want some peace of mind 
G                                 D                             G 
So let it go right over my head; Just want to give myself a little more time 
 G                                             Em    Bm 
And every single word that you said Went over my head, yeah 
Em    D       Bm          Em 
Over my head Over my head 
 

 
D                C                       G                  D 
Little girl I was so mistaken; thought that you were my friend 
D                C                       G          D 
In a world that is full of hatin' I'm about to descend 
D                C 
Didn't know you were close to breakin' 
G                      D        D                   C 
So you thought it should end;  left it all for a new location 
G                    D                            D7 
So you could start up again;   so keep smilin' till then 
G                   C                    D                       G 
I'm a million miles away from it all And let it go right over my head 
G                   C                    D                       G

Right now I want some peace of mind So let it go right over my head 
G                   C                    D                       G 
Just want to give myself a little more time And every single word that you said

Close the door, let me please Get to my bed 
 G                 D    Bm      Em 
I wanna take stock, see my life In perspective 
 G                 D    Bm               Em   Bm               Em
