Ab F C/G

[Verse 1]
Dm                        F
Why are some words like a storm
                            C
Break some hearts with some souls
                G       Dm
Make some lose, control
F                  C
Raking me over the coals

Dm                             F
Feels like we're breathing too fast
                 C
Our heads in the past
                 G                         Dm
Slow down, slow down, take a look where we are
F                C
Never been here before

Ab    F


[Chorus]
          C
'Cause we all have great expectations
   G
We can't forget who we are
                       Dm
Don't let it take you down
F               Fm
Taking us over, taking us over
C
We drive ourselves to the limit
G
Found this place in time
                    Dm
But we'll never be found
F               Fm                 C
Raking me over, raking me over the coals

Ab    F

[Verse 2]
Dm                        F
Our hearts were tied to a string
                      C
Our lost voices could sing
                       G       Dm
Thought that we had it all
F                       C
Funny we learned how to fall

Dm                        F
Shelter our eyes from the sun
                   C
All we built, came undone
              G                        Dm
Slow down, no sound running out of our way
F                  C
From where ever we came

Ab F

[Chorus]

          C
'Cause we all have great expectations
   G
We can't forget who we are
                       Dm
Don't let it take you down
F               Fm
Taking us over, taking us over
C
We drive ourselves to the limit
G
Found this place in time
                    Dm
But we'll never be found
F               Fm                 Ab    F
Raking me over, raking me over the coals

C
