Lyrics

Top down in the sum mer sun, the day we met was like a hit ’n’ run, and I

still taste it on my tongue.

The sky was burn ing up like fi re works.

You made me want you, oh, so bad it hurt.

But, girl,

in case you have n’t heard:

I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er; for ev er is o ver.

We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight.

So don’t call me cry in’, say hel lo to good bye.

Be cause (Ab)just one sip

would (Cm)make me say: I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er,

but now it’s o ver.

Hot sweat and the blur ry eyes, we’re spin nin’ round a roll er coast er ride; the world

still stuck in black and white.

You drove me cra zy ev ’ry time we touched.

Now I’m so bro ken that I can’t get up.

Oh, girl,

you make me such a lush.

I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er; for ev er is o ver.

We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight.

So don’t call me cry in’, say hel lo to good bye.

Be cause (Ab)just one sip

would (Cm)make me say: I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er,

but now it’s o ver.

but now it’s o (Ab)All ver.

the time I wast ed on you, (Eb)all the bull shit you (Bb)put me through.

(Ab)Check ing in to re hab ’cause ev ’ry thing that we had (Eb)did n’t mean a thing to you.

I need to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er,

but now it’s o ver.

I used to be love drunk, but now I’m hung o ver.

I’ll love you for ev er; for ev er is o ver.

We used to kiss all night, now it’s just a bar fight.

So don’t call me cry in’, say hel lo to good bye.

’Cause (Bb)just one sip
