Intro:

        [2X; strings enter 2nd time]:

        C       Em7       F       F/G
        / / / /  / / / /  / / / /  / / / /

Verse 1 (first four lines sung by background singers):

         G/C       C
        (Best of friends
         Em7
         Never part
         Fmaj7    F
         Best of fools has loved forever
         Abdim7
         From the bottom of his heart)

        So why pretend
        This is the end
        You'll have to find out for yourself
        Go and ask somebody else

Chorus:

         C                 Em7     Ebm6        Dm7
        Why can't you just get it through your head
             Dm7/G
        It's over, it's over
         C                 Em7     Ebm6  Dm7
        Yes, you heard me clearly, now I said
             Dm7/G
        It's over, it's over

        Em7            Am7
        I'm not really over you
        Em7
        You might say that
        F
        I can't take it, I can't take it
        F/G
        Lord, I swear I just can't take it no more

[repeat intro (1X, with strings)]

Verse 2:

        (Go away) Go away
        (Far away) So far away
        It's too late to turn back now
        And it don't matter anyhow

        'Cause you were right
        I'm to blame
        Can't go on the same old way
        Can't keep up the same old game

[repeat chorus]

Coda [repeat to fade]:

        (Why can't you just get it through your head)
             Dm7/G
        (It's over, it's over)
         C                 Em7     Ebm6  Dm7
        Yes, you heard me clearly, now I said
             Dm7/G
        It's over, it's over
