                       Ab      Bb
I thought we were just hanging out
                     Cm
So why'd you kiss me on the mouth
                        Ab
You thought the way you taste
      Bb     Cm
Would get me high
                     Ab         Bb
You went to all your friends to brag
                Cm
Guys are always such a drag

Don't you know the reason that I kissed you was to
Bb
Say goodbye
