[Verse]
EOh lover I,
Don't know Dwhat to believe,
I'm a hAopeless romantic,
Yeah I Cget the disease.
ELove's a feeling,
But feDeling ain't fact,
AHappiness is a chemical,
 CDarren Hamlin said that.
EAll the poetry,
I put on Dthe same train,
RAoll your love to me,
CI took it away.
EWell everything changes,
That Dyou can be sure,
Ch-ch-ch-Achange me,
CI don't wanna feel anymore.
[Chorus]
CI wrote my name across your sky,
But when you looked it vapourised.E  
CYour name in lights on my billboard
But when you looked the power's short aEndD  
AThere's nothing I can do
CSo I let go of you
[Verse]
ECome on baby,
Let's go Dback to your house
APut on some vinyl,
So wCe can make out.
I prEetend I'm younger,
Even tDhough we both know
I dArank myself sober
I'm just no Cfun for you
[Chorus]
CI looked into the deep abyss,
But all I saw was narcicistEs

CSo I let go of you
EOoooooooh DOoooooh

[Verse]

Oh lover I,

Don't know what to believe,

I'm a hopeless romantic,

Yeah I get the disease.

Love's a feeling,

But feeling ain't fact,

Happiness is a chemical,

Darren Hamlin said that.

All the poetry,

I put on the same train,

Roll your love to me,

I took it away.

Well everything changes,

That you can be sure,

Ch-ch-ch-change me,

I don't wanna feel anymore.

[Chorus]

I wrote my name across your sky,

But when you looked it vapourised.

Your name in lights on my billboard

E D

But when you looked the power's short and

There's nothing I can do

So I let go of you

[Verse]

Come on baby,

Let's go back to your house

Put on some vinyl,

So we can make out.

I pretend I'm younger,

Even though we both know

I drank myself sober

I'm just no fun for you

[Chorus]

I looked into the deep abyss,

But all I saw was narcicists

Proceed in hell I'm Taylor Sue(?)

E D

I'm indie rock and so obssessed with you

There's nothing I can do,

So I let go of you

E D

Ooooooooh Ooooooh

(hold)

[Chorus]

I throw my map across your sky,

But when you looked it vapourised.

Your name in lights on my billboard

But when you looked the power's short and

There's nothing I can do

So I let go of you

There's nothing I can do
