Verse 1 Chords:

              G                C         Em      D        C
Look like a lush. Talk like a tease. The way you like it.

                  G                    C
In front of your house, alone on the street,

        Em      D      C 
you ask me to come in-side.

C Riff 1 Asleep through all our classes,

     C
you hang me out to dry.

Chorus Chords:

              G                   C
If this is a test, I’m losing my shit

                      Em      D         C
Would it kill you to care as much as I did?

              G                    C
If this is a test, I’m wasting my breath

           Em     D       C                 (Intro Chords/riff)
You’re a stranger I know well, and not at all.

Verse 2: Use Verse 1 Chords Heart on a hook thrown out to the sea, your basement busy. Sitting in the dark, I turn the radio off for a phone call you’ll likely miss. Wake me when it’s over. The last sound of goodbye. Chorus Chords: If this is a test, I’m losing my shit Would it kill you to care as much as I did? If this is a test, I’m wasting my breath You’re a stranger I know well, and not at all. :before Bridge play Riff 1 a couple times Bridge: (repeat 2x)

          Em       D              C                    Em D C
“Let’s imagine the end before we even begin,” you said.

Chorus Chords: (repeat 2x) If this is a test, I’m losing my shit Would it kill you to care as much as I did? If this is a test, I’m wasting my breath You’re a stranger I know well, and not at all. Outro:

           Em     D      C                     G  
You’re a stranger I know well, and not at all.

           C               Em     D       C
And not at all. You’re a stranger I know well
