[Intro]
D Em Bm A
[Verse 1]
D Em
You promised the world and I fell for it
Bm A D
I put you first and you adored it, set fires to my forest
Em Bm
And you let it burn, sang off-key in my chorus
A
'Cause it wasn't yours
D Em
I saw the signs and I ignored it
Bm A D
Rose-colored glasses all distorted, set fire to my purpose
Em Bm
And I let it burn, you got off on the hurtin'
A
When it wasn’t yours, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 1]
G D
We'd always go into it blindly
A D/F#
I needed to lose you to find me
G D
This dancing was killing me softly
A
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
[Chorus 1]
G D
To love love, yeah, to love love, yeah
A D/F#
To love, yeah, I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
G D
To love love, yeah, to love love, yeah
A
To love, yeah, I needed to lose you to love me
[Verse 2]
D Em
I gave my all and they all know it
Bm
That you turned me down and now it's showing
N.C.
In two months, you replaced us
D Em
Like it was easy
Bm
Made me think I deserved it
A
In the thick of healing, yeah
[Pre-Chorus 2]
G D
We'd always go into it blindly
A D/F#
I needed to lose you to find me

This dancing was killing me softly

I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
[Chorus 2]

To love love, yeah, to love love, yeah
