C Am Em D

[Verse 1]

        C                                    G
Well, I guess I'll have to fall in love with strangers
D                                   Em
Ride through New York City like I'm famous
    C                                   G
And if our lives don't work then we can change
                 D                  Em
Lord knows we've changed, love will rearrange us

      C                    G
Like, if you want freedom, you better free someone
D                        Em
Better not run when I'm hanging on, like
C                        G
If you want freedom, you better free someone
D                       Em
Better not run when I'm blind

[Chorus]

        C
Cause I am over you
  G
I am over you
      D
And I am over you
  Em
I am over you
  C
I am over you
      G
And I am over you
      D                   Em
Flesh wound, little flesh wound

[Verse 2]

  C                                    G
I guess I'll have to fall in love with strangers
   D                                   Em
Go ride through New York City like I'm famous
      C                           G
And I did not want our love to be erased
                  D                     Em
But Lord knows we chased it, love just rearranged us

    C                           G
I'm everything I thought I was, even if I don't have much
   D                          Em
My blue side my fire eyes, my heart keeps me in the fight
     C                        G
Like if you want freedom, you better free someone
    D                       Em
You better not run when I'm blind

[Chorus]

      C
But I am over you
  G
I am over you
      D
And I am over you
  Em
I am over you
  C
I am over you
      G
And I am over you
      D                   Em
Flesh wound, little flesh wound

[Instrumental]

C Am Em D
C Am Em D

[Bridge]

   C
So long (I am over you, I am over you)
      G
Other side now
       D    Em
I will be alright (I am over you, I am over you)
   C
So long (I am over you, I am over you)
      G
Other side now
       D    Em
I will be alright (I am over you, I am over you)

[Outro]

  C                                    G
I guess I'll have to fall in love with strangers
D                                   Em
Ride through New York City like I'm famous
      C                           G
And I did not want our love to be erased
                   D                    Em
But, Lord knows we chased it, love just rearranged us
