[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


[CHORUS]
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


[POST-CHORUS 1]
C#m    B/D#
Running    in my sleep

[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


[CHORUS]
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


[POST-CHORUS 2]
C#m    B/D#           A/E
Running    in my sleep
C#m    B/D#           Aadd9/E B/E
Running    in my sleep


[INTERLUDE 2]

[CHORUS]
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


[OUTRO]
C#m    B/D#           n.c.
Running    in my sleep
