Head Over Heels In This Life by Switchfoot
Head Over Heels In This Life
Tuning:Standard
*Chords listed at end
You might want to check the chord inversions at the bottom before you try
playing them, since they are not the normal fingering. Also, the question
mark stands for a chord that I could not find the name for, but it sounded
good, so I didn't try changing it. I t is also listed at the end.
