Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know Chords

[intro]
Dm  C  Dm  C

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

[instrumental]
Dm  C  Dm  C

[verse 2]
Dm            C
You can get addicted
     Dm      C        Dm    C  Dm  C
to a certain kind of sadness
Dm          C             Dm
  Like resignation to the end
C          Dm  C  Dm  C
Always the end
Dm           C
 So when we found
              Dm       C
that we could not make sense
Dm         C                  Dm       C
 Well you said that we would still be friends
Dm           C
 But I'll admit that
      Dm        C       Dm  C  Dm  C
I was glad that it was over

[chorus]
Dm        C              Bb      C
 But you didn't have to cut me off
Dm         C             Bb
 Make out like it never happened
         C          Dm
And that we were nothing
    C            Bb         C
And I don't even need your love
        Dm              C
But you treat me like a stranger
         Bb        C
And that feels so rough
Dm    C              Bb        C
 You didn't have to stoop so low
Dm          C                    Bb
 Have your friends collect your records
         C              Dm
And then change your number
  C                  Bb         C
I guess that I don't need that though
Dm                  C           Bb       C
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Dm  C  Bb  C

Dm                  C           Bb       C
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Dm  C  Bb  C

Dm                  C           Bb       C
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

[interlude] x4
Dm  C  Dm  C

[verse 3]
Dm        C               Dm
 Now and then I think of all
              C           Dm  C  Dm  C
the times you screwed me over
Dm             C
  But had me believing
       Bb                C        Dm  C  Dm  C
it was always something that I'd done
C
  And I don't wanna live that way
C
  Reading into every word you say
C
  You said that you could let it go
      C
And I wouldn't catch
you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

[chorus]
Dm        C              Bb      C
  But you didn't have to cut me off
Dm         C             Bb
  Make out like it never happened
         C         Dm
And that we were nothing
    C            Bb         C
And I don't even need your love
        Dm              C
But you treat me like a stranger
         Bb        C
And that feels so rough
Dm    C              Bb        C
  You didn't have to stoop so low
Dm          C                    Bb
  Have your friends collect your records
         C              Dm
And then change your number
  C                  Bb         C
I guess that I don't need that though
Dm                  C           Bb       C
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

[outro]
      Dm  C   Bb       C
Somebody   (I used to know)
      Dm                      C           Bb       C
Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)
      Dm  C   Bb       C
Somebody   (I used to know)
       Dm                     C           Bb       C
Somebody (Now you're just somebody that I used to know)

Dm  C    Bb       C
       I used to know
Dm  C         Bb       C
       That I used to know
Dm  C    Bb       C
       I used to know
      Dm  C  Bb  C
Somebody...
