Head Over Heels lyrics by Tears For Fears
Head Over Heels - Tears For FearsIntro |C|/|D|/| 3x |A-
1. Strophe
C A C
I wanted to be with you alone, and talk about the weather,
A C A
but traditions I can trace against the child in your face,
C A
won't escape my attention.
C A
You keep your distance with a system of touch
C
and gentle persuasion.
A C
I'm lost in admiration, could I need you this much,
A C
oh, you're wasting my time, you're just, just, just wasting time.
1. Refrain
G Em
Something happens and I'm head over heels,
G Em
I never find out till I'm head over heels.
G Em
Something happens and I'm head over heels,
Dm7
ah don't take my heart, don't break my heart,
A C A C A
don't, don't, don't throw it away, throw it away, throw it away.
2. Strophe
C A C
I made a fire and watching burn, thought of your future,
A C
with one foot in the past now just how long will it last,
A C
no no no, have you no ambition?
A C A
My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air,
C
And dreaming I'm a doctor.
A C
It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand,
A C
Oh I feel so...!
2. Refrain
G Em
Something happens and I'm head over heels,
G Em
I never find out till I'm head over heels.
G Em
Something happens and I'm head over heels,
Dm7
ah don't take my heart, don't break my heart,
C
don't, don't, don't throw it away.
Bridge:
D
And this my four leaf clover.
C D
I'm on the line, one open mind, this is my four leaf clover.
Coda
C D C D C D C D C
La-la la-la...
D C
(In my mind's eye, one little boy, one little man,
D
funny how time flies...!)
