 I Know It's Over" Jeff Buckley (Melbourne Version)

  

  

  

  

        C                                        Am

  Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

            C                                  Am

  And as I climb into an empty bed - oh well, enough said

               F             G         F                         G

  I know it's over, still I cling, I don't know where else I can go

  F                          G

  Over and over.....

        C                                        Am      F  G

  Oh Mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head

           C                                                Am

  See the sea wants to take me, the knife wants to slit me

  

  Do you think you can help me

  F     G     C                                                   Am

  Sad veiled bride please be happy - handsome groom give her room

  F     G        C

  Loud loutish lover treat her kindly though she needs you

   Am                     F  G                F               G

  More than she loves you   - and I know it's over - still I cling

     F                           G             F       G

  I don't know where else I can go - over and over.....

  

  

  [This section almost spoken, making the timing a touch tricky]

               C                 F          G                  F   G   Am

  I know it's over and it never really began but in my heart it was so real

                        G      F  G

  And she 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

  "And if you're so very entertaining then why are you on your own tonight?"

   C                                                           Am           

  "And if you're so very good looking, then why do you sleep alone tonight?"

  F  G           C

  I know - 'cos tonight is just like any other night - that's why you're on

        Am

  your own tonight

             C                                Am                           F

  With your triumphs and your charms - while they're in each other's arms

  G                F                     G               F

  It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate, it takes strength to be gentle

        G             F          G

  and kind - over and over....

                   C                     F              G         

  It's so easy to laugh it's so easy to hate, it takes guts to be gentle and

  Am              F        G

  kind - over and over....

          C            F  G              Em               F          G

  Love is natural and real - but not for you my love not tonight my love

          C            F  G       F       G       Am     F     G

  Love is natural and real - but not for such as you and I my love

      C          F     G      Em   F    G....

  Oh mother... etc.

      C          F     G      Am   G    F    G etc.

  

  

  

  If you want to play this in the key of G, as did Jeff, my rough and ready seat of the pants re-labelling goes something like this:

  For C major, play G major;

  For A minor, play E minor;

  For F major, play C major;

  For G major, play D major;

  For E minor, play B minor;

  (I think that should be accurate. Please let me know if you think otherwise.)
