    C                                                Am7 
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F   G        C 
   and as I climb into an empty bed 
          Am7 
oh well, enough said
F G          F              G 
  I know it's over still I cling
F                          G         F      G F 
I don't know where else I can go, mother
[Versetto]
    C                                               Am7 
Oh mother, I can feel the soil falling over my head
F G         C 
  see, the sea wants to take me
  
the knife wants to slit me
  Am 
do you think you can help me?
F    G     C 
Sad veiled bride, please be happy
                              Am7 
handsome groom, give her room
F     G       C 
loud, loutish lover, treat her kindly
                          Am7 
although she needs you more than she loves you
F G             F              G 
And I know it's over still I cling
F                          G 
I don't know where else I can go
F                    G               F 
it's over, it's over, it's over

I know it's over
              F 
and it never really began
G               F       G       Am

C                                               Am7         F G

C                                                 Am7         F G 
and if you're so clever then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                        Am7         F G 
if you're so very entertaining then why are you on your own tonight?
C                                                  Am7 
if you're so very good looking why do you sleep alone tonight? 
     F G        C 
I know   cause tonight is just like any other night
                           Am7         F  G 
that's why you're on your own tonight
             C 
with your triumphs and your charms
         Am7 
while they are in each other's arms"

it's over, over, over
