(Strum on the off beats) 


*I was a teen flat-liner on the joy screen 
*Dead in the water of life as we knew 
*You offered me drink, I wanted more than a sip 
*But I couldn't let go of the straws I was clinging to 

(+)Chorus: 

 E               D               
+Giving it over, giving it over 

*I was flat on my back, I'd slid `til it hurt 
+Giving it over, giving it over 
*You put my head in the clouds and my feet in good dirt 
*My head in the clouds and my feet in good    

*Dirt 
*Devils were crowding my head 
*With lies they spread 
*They'd convinced me of what fools know isn't true 
*Quick as an Outkast rhyme you took me back in time 
*Back to the first love I ever knew 

+Giving it over, giving it over 
*Got my broken heart healed and removed from its cast 
+Giving it over, giving it over 
*Yeah, I'm giving myself to a true love at last 
*Giving myself to a true love at last

        You don't know where the wind's gonna blow 
              D                    
And since you can't take it with you 
       D                       B   
better give it away before you go 
          D               
Yeah, I'm giving it over 

(Verses riff 4x) 

*Greed is the word, it's a verb 
*Wants to bind us all 
*Bind us together like a platinum truss 
+Giving it over, giving it over 
*I'm putting my heart into treasures that don't rust 
+Giving it over, Giving it over 
*I'm giving it all to a face I can trust
