you hang me out to dry.

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.
