Somebody That I Used To Know - Gotye

capo 5 version

Am, G, F

Intro: Am, G, Am, G x5

Verse:

Am      G      Am G    Am   G Am  G

Now and then I think of when we were together

      

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die

   

Told myself that you were right for me

But felt so lonely in your company

But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

Am, G, Am, G x4

Verse 2:

Am, G, Am, G, Am,G, Am, G

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

Like resignation to the end

Always the end

So when we found that we could not make sense

Well you said that we would still be friends

But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

Chorus:

Am      G              F    G

But you didn't have to cut me off

Am       G          F

Make out like it never happened

         G          Am

And that we were nothing

    G             F       G

And I don't even need your love

         Am              G

But you treat me like a stranger

          F       G

And that feels so rough

You didn't have to stoop so low

Have your friends collect your records

 

And then change your number

I guess that I don't need that though

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Verse 3:

Am       G             Am                  G          Am  G Am G     

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

Am          G                F              G      Am   G Am G

But had me believing it was always something that I'd done

F    Am            G      

And I don't wanna live that way

F      Am      G

Reading into every word you say

F      Am        G

You said that you could let it go

F      Am         G

And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

Chorus:

But you didn't have to cut me off

Make out like it never happened

And that we were nothing

And I don't even need your love

But you treat me like a stranger

And that feels so rough

You didn't have to stoop so low

Have your friends collect your records

And then change your number

I guess that I don't need that though

Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Am  G    F  G

I used to know

Am   G    F   G

That I used to know x2

Am    G   F   G

Somebody...

Ends on Am
