Verse 1:
A
Hometown hero at the bar
A
Burned out high life super star
Gbm
You know
A
Kept a buzz to fill the hole
                                     Gbm
Loved the lights and stole the show

Pre-chorus:
D                  A
Someone I used to know
                    E
Would stay another round
Gbm                    D
Someone I used to know
                E
Ran himself in the ground

Chorus:
             Gbm             E
It's been a long time comin'
          D          A
Couldn't keep on runnin'
       Gbm        E         D
Had to hit rock bottom to know
         Gbm           E
When you keep on losin'
          D                 A
With the path you're choosin'
          Gbm          E
And it's time to let go

Of someone that I used to know

Know, know

Someone that I used to know

Verse 2:
A
Rides the high that tears him down
                                   Gbm
Hates himself and loves the crowd
A
The king of fools a heavy crown
                                   Gbm
He didn't know he almost drowned

Ran himself in the ground

Had to hit rock bottom to know
         Gbm           E
When you keep on losin'
