[Verse 1]
C
You should take it as a compliment
Am                                                           F
That I got drunk and made fun of the way you talk
C
You should think about the consequence
Am                                                                         F
Of your magnetic field being a little too strong
C
And I got a boyfriend, he’s older than us
C
He’s in the club doing I don’t know what
Am
You’re so cool it makes me hate you so much
F
(I hate you so much)

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                                     G
Whiskey on ice, sunset and vine
F                                     C                                     G
You’ve ruined my life by not being in mine

[Chorus]
C
You’re so gorgeous
Am
I can’t say anything to your face
F
‘Cause look at your face
C
And I’m so furious
Am
At you for making me feel this way
F
But what can I say? You’re gorgeous

[Verse 2]
C
You should take it as a compliment
Am                                     F
That I’m talking to everyone here but you
C
And you should think about the consequence
Am                                     F
Of you touching my hand in the darkened room
C
If you’ve got a girlfriend, I’m jealous of her
C
But if you’re single that’s honestly worse
Am
‘Cause you’re so gorgeous it actually hurts
F
(Honey, it hurts)

[Pre-Chorus]
Am                                     G
Ocean blue eyes looking in mine
F                                     C                                     G
I feel like I might sink and drown and die
