[Verse 1]
Am        G               Am      G        Am   G  Am  G
  Now and then I think of when we were together
Am              G                Am    G         Am  G  Am  G
  Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Am       G                  Am        G
  Told myself that you were right for me
Am            G              Am     G
  But felt so lonely in your company
Am             G                Am     G          Am  G  Am  G
  But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

[Verse 2]
Am            G           Am      G        Am    G  Am  G
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Am          G             Am
  Like resignation to the end
G          Am  G  Am  G
Always the end
Am           G                   Am       G
  So when we found that we could not make sense
Am         G                  Am       G
  Well you said that we would still be friends
Am           G              Am        G       Am  G  Am  G
  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
Am    G              F        G
  You didn't have to stoop so low
Am          G                    F
  Have your friends collect your records
         G              Am
And then change your number
  G                  F         G
I guess that I don't need that though
Am                  G           F       G
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
 
Am  G  F  G
 
Am                  G           F       G
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
 
Am  G  F  G
 
Am                  G           F       G
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
 
[Interlude]
Am  G  Am  G  x4
 
[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
G
  And I don't wanna live that way
G
  Reading into every word you say
G
  You said that you could let it go
      G                                 N.C.
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...
 
 
[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
Am    G              F        G
  You didn't have to stoop so low
Am          G                    F
  Have your friends collect your records
         G              Am
And then change your number
  G                  F         G
I guess that I don't need that though
Am                  G           F       G
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

      Am  G   F       G
Somebody   (I used to know)
       Am                     G           F       G
Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
 
Am  G    F       G
       I used to know
