ADELE – Someone Like You

#

A-

This song is from the album 21(2011), released on Feb 22, 2011.
I loved the raw emotion and the power in her voice. The simple piano in the background along with the powerful vocals make this song one of the best by Adele. I loved the arrangement and the structure of the lyrics, perfect for a post-break up mood.

[INTRO] A Amaj7 F#m D
[VERSE]
A                Amaj7
I heard that you're settled down
F#m                  D
That you found a girl and you're married now.
A                  Amaj7
I heard that your dreams came true.
F#m                       D
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.
A                       Amaj7
Old friend, why are you so shy?
F#m                 D
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.
[PRE-CHORUS]
E                        F#m
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
D
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
E                             F#m
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
D
That for me it isn't over.
[CHORUS]
A                  E           F#m    D
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
A              E       F#m  D
I wish nothing but the best for you too
A        E
Don't forget me, I beg
F#m         D
I'll remember you said,
A                 E                F#m D
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
A                  E                  F#m D
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
[VERSE]
A                     Amaj7
You know how the time flies
F#m                D
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
A
We were born and raised
Amaj7
In a summer haze
F#m                    D
Bound by the surprise of our glory days
[PRE-CHORUS]
E                        F#m
I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
D
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
E                             F#m
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
D
That for me it isn't over.
[CHORUS]
A                  E           F#m    D
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
A              E       F#m  D
I wish nothing but the best for you too
A        E
Don't forget me, I beg
F#m         D
I'll remember you said,
A                 E                F#m D
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
[BRIDGE]
E
Nothing compares
E
No worries or cares
F#m
Regrets and mistakes
F#m
They are memories made.
D                             Bm      A/C#         D
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?
[CHORUS]
A                  E           F#m    D
Never mind, I'll find someone like you
A              E       F#m  D
I wish nothing but the best for you too
A        E
Don't forget me, I beg
F#m         D

I wish nothing but the best for you too

"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
A                  E                  F#m D
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead"
