Over You - Chris Daughtry

Artist: Chris Daughtry
Title:  Over You
Standard Tuning 

Capo 1 or not depending on how you sing it.

***NOTE***

I submit this as an easy good sounding version to play. This is how I play it. It 
does not require detuning the guitar.


D                            A
Now that it's all said and done,
                  Bm
I can't believe you were the one
              A               G
To build me up and tear me down,

Like an old abandoned house.
D                         A        
What you said when you left
                              Bm
Just left me cold and out of breath.
            A                    E     
I fell too far, was in way too deep.
                         G       A
Guess I let you get the best of me.

(CHORUS)
        D
Well, I never saw it coming.
                         
I should've started running
   A
A long, long time ago.
 Bm
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
       A
I'm better off without you
  G
More than you, more than you know.
    D
I'm slowly getting closure.

I guess it's really over.
        A
I'm finally getting better.
  Bm
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
 A
I'm spending all of these years
    G
Putting my heart back together.
   E                                G
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
       A
I got over you.



D                          A
You took a hammer to these walls,
         Bm
Dragged the memories down the hall,
            A               G
Packed your bags and walked away.

There was nothing I could say.
D                                   A
And when you slammed the front door shut,
                       Bm 
A lot of others opened up,
          A               E
So did my eyes so I could see
                        G           A
That you never were the best for me.

(CHORUS)
        D
Well, I never saw it coming.
                         
I should've started running
   A
A long, long time ago.
 Bm
And I never thought I'd doubt you,
       A
I'm better off without you
  G
More than you, more than you know.
    D
I'm slowly getting closure.

I guess it's really over.
        A
I'm finally getting better.
  Bm
And now I'm picking up the pieces.
 A
I'm spending all of these years
    G
Putting my heart back together.
   E                                G
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
       A
I got over you.

(SOLO)

        D

       A

  G
More than you, more than you know.

        D

        A
I'm finally getting better.

    G
Putting my heart back together.


D
Whoa oh ah oh
A
Well I'm putting my heart back together,
Bm         A
Whoa oh ah oh
G
'Cause I got over you.
D
Whoa oh ah oh
A
Well I got over you.
Bm        A
Whoa oh ah oh
G
I got over you.
E                                    G
'Cause the day I thought I'd never get through,
      A
I got over you.
