The Fray

Over My Head Cable Car

by The Fray
The Fray

Biography:

From the sleepy sprawl of America's 'Mile-High City', Denver, Colorado, United States, comes The Fray, a foursome whose melodic piano rock songs and soaring vocals resonate with sprawling tapestries and tales of hopefulness and heartache. Formed in 2002 by Isaac Slade (vocals, piano) and Joe King (guitar, vocals), The Fray earned a loyal grassroots following through impressive area gigs and the support of local radio, which led a listener-driven campaign to get the band a record contract.

The tab that I saw for Over My Head right now is decent, but I wanted to change a few things
so I'm just tabbing my own version that I think sounds great (probably not what they play, in
other words). Lemme know what you think.

Capo 1st fret for both guitar parts, all chord shapes relative to capo.

Guitar I -- Chords


[Verse]

CM7/E
I never knew
Em7 G CM7/E
I never knew that everything was falling through
Em7 G CM7/E
That everyone I knew was waiting on a cue
Em7 G Am G D
To turn and run when all I needed was the truth
CM9/E
But that's how it's got to be
Em7 G CM9/E
It's coming down to nothing more than apathy
Em7 G CM9/E
I'd rather run the other way than stay and see
Em7 G CM9/E Am D
The smoke and who's still standing when it clears and


[Chorus]

C G Em G
Everyone knows I'm in
C G
Over my head
Em D7sus4
Over my head
C G Em G
With eight seconds left in overtime
C G
She's on your mind
Em D7sus4 CM9/E Em7 G
Em7 G
She's on.. your.. mind


[Verse]

CM9/E
Let's rearrange
Em7 G CM9/E
I wish you were a stranger I could disengage
Em7 G CM9/E
Just say that we agree and then never change
Em7 G Am11 G D
Soften a bit until we all just get along
CM9/E
But that's disregard
Em7 G CM9/E
You find another friend and you discard
Em7 G CM9/E
As you lose the argument in a cable car
Em7 G Am G D
Hanging above as the canyon comes between and


[Chorus]

C G Em G
Everyone knows I'm in
C G
Over my head
Em D7sus4
Over my head
C G Em G
With eight seconds left in overtime
C G
She's on your mind
Em D7sus4
She's on your mind
C G Em G
Everyone knows I'm in
C G
Over my head
Em D7sus4
Over my head
C G Em G
With eight seconds left in overtime
C G
She's on your mind
Em D7sus4
She's on.. your.. (CHANGE OF RHYTHM)


[Bridge]

CM9/E Em7 G CM9/E
And suddenly I become a part of your past
Em7 G CM9/E
I'm becoming the part that don't last
Em7 G Am11
I'm losing you and its effortless (RHYTHM BACK TO NORMAL)
CM9/E Em7 G
Without a sound we lose sight of the ground
CM9/E
In the throw around
Em7 G CM7/E
Never thought that you wanted to bring it down
Em7 G Am G Am11
I won't let it go down till we torch it ourselves and


[Chorus]

C G Em G
Everyone knows I'm in
C G
Over my head
Em D7sus4
Over my head
C G Em G
With eight seconds left in overtime
C G
She's on your mind
Em D7sus4 CM9/E
She's on.. your.. mind
Em7 G CM9/E
Everyone knows
Em7 G CM9/E
She's on your mind
Em7 G
Everone knows I'm in
CM9/E
Over my head
Em7
I'm in over my head
G
I'm over my
C G Em G
Everyone knows I'm in
C G
Over my head
Em D7sus4
Over my head
C G Em G
With eight seconds left in overtime
C G
She's on your mind
