Head Over Heels by The Go-gos




                   Head Over Heels







C7	     F	                   Bb
Been running so long, I've nearly lost all track of time
               F	       Bb
In every direction,I couldn't see the warning sign
            Eb	               Bb
I must be losin' it 'cause my mind plays tricks on me
               F	          C
It looked so easy but you know looks sometimes deceive

	         
             F	            Bb
Been running so fast right from the starting line
            F	                 Bb
No more connections  I don't need any more advice
                 Eb	          Bb
One hand's just reaching out and one's just hangin' on
                 F	C
It seems my weaknesses just keep going strong


(Chorus)
F          C	               G
Head over heels where should I go
              D	              F
Can't stop myself I lose control
            C                  G
Head over heels   No time to think
	         D	             F
Looks like the whole world's out of sync

C7            F                   Bb
Been running so hard when what I need is to unwind
                F             Bb
The voice of reason is one I left so far behind
         Eb           Bb
I waited so long, so long to play this part
            F
And just remembered
              C
That I'd forgotten about my heart  (CHORUS)

version 3










 1) Guitar 1 - If it's in TAB, chances are it's the piano/keyboard part.
     I've written it in as Guitar 1. I haven't written out the verse
     part because I don't know it. I don't think you REALLY need to
     know it. It's basically single notes, and while interesting, not
     especially important to the overall flow of the song. So, the way
     I've written it, guitar 1 is silent for most of the song. You can,
     if you want, have it double guitar 2 or, if you're daring, combine
     the two parts on one guitar. It's not that hard and was what my 
     band was going to do until we found a singer who played keyboard.
 2) Guitar 2 - Rhythm. All of the chord names above the words and TABs
     are guitar 2. Although it just plays basic chords, it plays a
     vital part in keeping the song moving smoothly. NEVER
     underestimate the power of playing a single chord for an entire
     bar. You can get the rhythm for guitar 2 from the recording. It's
     a bit too difficult for me to transcribe, and I know what I play,
     which may not be what the recording does. Anyway, go by ear. It's
     not tough.
 3) I've written out the cool bass part for the chorus because it fills
     in what would be a large whole and it sounds neat besides.
 4) Any time I have separated two chords with a | (as in D | A), that
     means that we are dealing with more than one measure. So, in the
     above example, you would play a D chord for one measure (using
     whatever rhythm) and then play an A chord for one measure. I just
     did this so I wouldn't have to write out in TAB chords for which
     I don't know the rhythm.
 5) The C and B chords in the bridge should be A-form barre chords.
 6) I saw the Go-Go's live in Virginia, for the 1994 WHFS-mas Holiday 
     Nutcracker (with Vicki Peterson of the Bangles on guitar!), and 
     they didn't have a keyboard - Vicki played all the piano parts on 
     guitar. I'd like to think that she read my original post of this 
     song to learn it, but I'm sure that wasn't the case. BTW, they 
     were terrific, easily one of the best live bands I've ever seen.
 7) As always, Belinda Carlisle's voice is way too high for more mere
     mortals to reproduce. Don't hurt yourself.
