[Verse]

D
 I never know what to say

 when I see you
                     Em    
I don't know you anymore, 
                Gsus2 A   
but damn I used to
Bm                    D
 I know your deepest secrets
                         Gsus2 
The dreams you've been dreaming 
                A
and all of your moods
Bm                        D
 Just because we're not speaking
                      Gsus2           A
Doesn't mean I don't remember all of you
 
 
[Chorus]
                     D
Ain't it funny how "Hey"
             Em
Becomes "How are you?"
              Gsus2
Becomes "I'd love to"
                         A              D
Becomes "I want you and need you" and then
            Em
Becomes "I love you"
            Gsus2
Becomes "I hate you"
                                 F#m
Becomes "I never wanna see you again"
  Bm   A       G       D/F#     Em
Woah,   oh, I wish we could go back to
D
 "Hey"
 
 
[Verse]

                          Em   
I saw you just the other day 
                 Gsus2   A
passing your street, mm
D                     Em     
 From soulmates to strangers, 
                 Gsus2   A
it's hard to believe
Bm                   D
 And every now and then
                  Gsus2  
I find myself forgetting 
               A
why I let you go, oh
Bm              D
 I think about calling
                   Gsus2                   A
But always find a reason to put down the phone
 
 
[Chorus]
                     D
Ain't it funny how "Hey" (Hey)
             Em
Becomes "How are you?"
              Gsus2
Becomes "I'd love to" 

(Ooh, I'd love to)
                         
Becomes "I want you and 
 A              D
need you" and then (Hey)
            Em
Becomes "I love you" 

(Becomes "I love you")
            Gsus2
Becomes "I hate you" 

(Ooh, hate you)
                                 F#m
Becomes "I never wanna see you again"
  Bm   A       G       D/F#     Em
Woah,   oh, I wish we could go back to
 
 
[Bridge]

Bm
 The day we met (Ooh)
F#/Bb
 The innocence (Ah)
A                E/G#
 That first "hello" 

(Oh, that first "hello")
Bm                 F#/Bb
 And though it's over (Hey)
                    A
There's love left over
                 E/G#
With nowhere to go, yeah, yeah 

(No, no, no, no)
Bm               D/F#
 When I see you now
             Gmaj7
Still gonna love you (Love you)
Gmaj7
Oh, yeah, yeah
Bm               D
 When I see you now
             Gmaj7
Still gonna love you
                  A
But just not out loud
 
 
[Chorus]
                     D
Ain't it funny how "Hey" (Hey)
             Em
Becomes "How are you?"
              Gsus2
Becomes "I'd love to" 

(Ooh, I'd love to)
                         
Becomes "I want you and 
 A              D
need you" and then (Hey)
            Em
Becomes "I love you" 

(Becomes "I love you")
            Gsus2
Becomes "I hate you" 

(Ooh, hate you)
                                 F#m
Becomes "I never wanna see you again"
  Bm   A       G   
Woah,   oh, I wish 
    D/F#     Em
we could go back to
 G       D/F#     Em
Wish we could go back to
 G       D/F#     Em
Wish we could go back to
D
