Intro: 
      E        A         {2X} 
      / / / /  / / / / 
 
Verse 1 (acoustic guitar alone): 
       E          B 
      It's over, well over 
      D              E 
      In my mind and in my heart 
       E          B 
      It's over, well over 
       D                  A                  E     D    A 
      But then again, it didn't have a good start 
      {1:   E     D  A               2,3: E     A  B        } 
            / / / /  / / / /              / / / /  / / / / 
 
Verse 2 (organ and harmonica enter): 
 
      You'd tell me, try to sell me 

      It could have been all I asked 

      It's over, well over 

      Yes, there it flows away   a distant past 
 
Chorus (full band enters): 
                  E     A    B 
      Now it's a long, dark road 
                   E     A    B 
      Yes, it's a long, dark road 
               E   E7/D A6/C# 
      And you know  I   loved you 
                E   E7/D A6/C# 
      Yes, you know  I   loved you 
 
{harmonica solo over Verse 2 chords} 
 
{repeat Chorus} 
 
Verse 3: 
 
      It's over, well over 

      And we can't   revive what's passed 

      It's gone now, moved on now, 

      But then again, it didn't have a chance to last 

      (No, no, no, a chance to last) 
 
{repeat Chorus} 
 
Coda (repeat 5X; fade): 
                  E     A    B 
      Now it's a long, dark road 
                   E     A    B 
      Yes, it's a long, dark road
