verse 1 
     E 
     Nightmares have a hold on me 
               Em 
     Will this fever ever leave 
         A9                     E 
     And wake me from my sleep again? 
     E 
     Careful, I am somewhere else 
             Em                      A9 
     And I'm walking in the dark, concealing all my scars 
Asus4           Am       n.c. 
     I see a new  horizon 


 
E 
Over the hills and far away 

It's not too late to escape 
A 
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah 
E 
Over the hills and far away 

We're getting nowhere playing safe 
A 
Yeah, yeah, eh yeah

verse 2 
       E 
     A chess game all in black and white 
             Em 
     In a charade that made me numb 
           A9                             E 
     Where black knights keep me from the day 
     E 
     Angels singing as I fall 
                      Em                     A9 
     From a staircase leading to beyond with hypnotizing songs 
Asus4              Am      ( E ) 
     Leading to new  horizons 



E 
Over the hills and far away 

It's not too late to escape

Yeah, yeah, eh yeah 
E 
Over the hills and far away 

We're getting nowhere playing safe

Yeah, yeah, eh yeah
