[Verse 1]
      Am         F
Every day, every night,
     C              G
I can only think of us
       Am          F
On the coast, in July,
         C                    G
when you thought you said too much
         Am           F
Guess it don't always go
         C                  G
like the stories we’ve been told
              Am              F
'Cause you're gone and you’re fine,
           C             G
I'm laying here fucked up

[Pre-Chorus]
      Am
Oh, I wonder
     F                     C
Did emotions fade with the summer
        G                   Am
Like an ocean wave, took me under
        F              C
And you left without a sound

[Chorus]
      G             Am
Baby, baby, tell me how
           F              C
How do you love somebody?
           G             Am
How do you love somebody else?
                F             C
'Cause when you left I lost myself
      G             Am
Baby, baby, tеll me how
           F             C
How do you love somebody?
           G                Am
How do you numb thе pain so well?
                F             C
'Cause when you left I lost myself
           G             Am
How do you love somebody else?
