HEAD OVER HEELS     TEARS FOR FEARS

KEY OF G


-4 -6   6 -5 -4  7    -8 8   7
I want-ed to be with you a-lone

 -4  -6  6   6   -5  -6  -4
And talk a-bout the wea-ther

 -4  -4 -6  -6   6  -5   -6  -4  -4
But tra-di-tions I can trace a-gainst 

 -4   7   -8   8    7
the child in your face

 -4   -4  -6   6 -5  -6  -4
Won't es-cape my at-ten-tion

 -6   6   -5   -6   -4   -4 -4  7   -8  8   7
You keep your dis-tance with a sys-tem of touch

 -4  -6  6   -5  -6  -4
And gen-tle per-sua-sion

 -4  -6  -6  6  -6 -6 -4   -4
I'm lost in ad-mir-a-tion could 

-4  7   -8   8   7
I need you this much

-6     6     6   -5   6  -6  -4
Oh, you're just wast-ing my time

  -6     6   -5   -5   5    4
You're just just wast-ing time

(CHORUS)

  6    6    6    5   6   5   -7 -7 -6    5
Some-thing hap-pens and I'm head o-ver heels

-6 -6  5   6   6    6    5  -7  -7 7   -8
I nev-er find out till I'm head o-ver heels

  6    6    6    5   6   5   -7 -7 -6    5
Some-thing hap-pens and I'm head o-ver heels

-6   6    -7  -7   -6
Ah don't take my heart

  -6     6   6   -5   -5    -5     5    5 -4 -3b
Don't break my heart don't don’t throw it a-way


VERSE 2 same as 1
I made a fire and watching burn
Thought of your future
With one foot in the past now just 
how long will it last
No no no have you no ambition
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean in air
And dreaming I'm a doctor
It's hard to be a man when 
there's a gun in your hand
Oh I feel so...


  6    6    6    5   6   5   -7 -7 -6    5
Some-thing hap-pens and I'm head o-ver heels

 -5   6  -6  -6    6    6  -4
And this my four leaf clov-er

 -6 -6  6   -6  -6  6   -6
I'm on the line, o-pen mind

 -5   6 -6  -6    6    6  -4
This is my four leaf clov-er

-9  8  7 -8 -6 -9  8  7 -8 -6
La la la la la la la la la la

-6  6 -8  7 -8  7
La la la la la la 

-5  6  -6    6   -6  -6  6  -6
In my minds eye one lit-tle boy, 

-6   -6  6   -6   -5  6  -6  -6    6
one lit-tle man, fun-ny how time flies

ENJOY!!
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
