Adele - Someone Like You

Author And Composer:Adele Adkins and Dan Wilson
Did you know:The song was inspired by a broken relationship of Adele with her ex-boyfriend.Adele sad: "Well, I wrote that song because I was exhausted from being such a bitch,
With 'Rolling in the Deep' or 'Rumour Has It'...
I was really emotionally drained from the way I was portraying him,
Because even though I'm very bitter and regret some parts of it,
He's still the most important person that's ever been in my life, and 'Someone Like You.
I had to write it to feel OK with myself and OK with the two years I
spent with him. And when I did it, I felt so freed.

  A                   A/Ab
I   heard that you're     
A/Ab         
settled down.
        F#m                       D
That you   found a girl and you're 
D            A
married now.  
A                 A/Ab             
I heard that your dreams came true.
          F#m            
Guess she gave you things
         D           
I didn't give to you.

A                        A/Ab  
Old friend, why are you so shy?
              F#m             
It ain't like you to hold back
   D                  
Or hide from the light

  E                         
I hate to turn up out of the
F#m            
blue uninvited,
       D                    
But I     couldn't stay away
  D                 
I couldn't fight it.
    E                      
I'd hoped you'd see my face
    F#m                    
And that you'd be reminded,
         D                  A
That for me, it isn't over.  

A               E   
Nevermind, I'll find
        F#m       D
someone like you.  
       A               E   
I wish nothing but the best
    F#m   D   
for you   too.
         A         E  
Don't forget me, I beg
       F#m        D    
I'll remember you said:
              A            
"Sometimes it lasts in love
    E                     F#m   D
but sometimes it hurts instead"  
             A            
Sometimes it lasts in love
    E                     F#m   D
But sometimes it hurts instead.  

A                 A/Ab           
You'd know how the    time flies.
     F#m                  
Only     yesterday was the
D                 
time of our lives.
        A                    A/Ab
We were born and raised in a     
A/Ab        
summer haze.
      F#m            
Bound by the surprise
        D         
of our glory days.

  E                         
I hate to turn up out of the
 F#m           
blue uninvited,

Nothing compares
E                   
no worries or cares.

Regret's and mistakes
                 F#m  
they're memories made.
