Comments: Woot!  Looks like I'll put up the first tab for this song!  This
is the date that BLG released the single on their Myspace.  I won't say
this tab is 100% correct, but it's pretty close.  This is only my second
tab, so it wil be somewhat confusing.  Post any comments or corrections you
have.  Enjoy!

P.S:  I have a video of me playing it.  Hope this helps.

Please note that this was made long before I updated this tab.  I used a
capo though you're not supposed to.

Lyrics:

(Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hey!)
Top down in the summer sun
The day we met was like a hit and run
And I still taste it on my tongue (Taste it on my tongue)
The sky was burning up like fireworks
You made me want you oh so bad it hurts
But girl, in case you haven't heard

I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now it's just a barfight
So don't call me cryin'
Say hello to goodbye (Oh yeah!)
'Cause just one sip (Oh yeah!)
Would make me sick
I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
But now it's over

(Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hey!  Hhey!)
Hot sweat and blurry eyes
We're spinning on a roller coaster ride
With the world stuck in black and white
You drove me crazy every time we touched
Now I'm so broken that I can't get up
Oh girl, you make me such a rush

I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now it's just a barfight
So don't call me cryin'
Say hello to goodbye (Oh yeah!)
'Cause just one sip (Oh yeah!)
Would make me sick
I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
But now it's over

All the time I wasted on you
All the bullshit you put me through
I'm checking into rehab
Cause everything that we had
Didn't mean a thing to you

I used to be love drunk
(But now I'm hungover)
I love you forever
But now I'm sober

I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
Forever is over
We used to kiss all night
Now it's just a barfight
So don't call me cryin'
Say hello to goodbye (Oh yeah!)
'Cause just one sip (Oh yeah!)
Would make me sick
I used to be love drunk
But now I'm hungover
I love you forever
But now it's over
(Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na)

(Now it's over)
(Still taste it on my tongue)
(Now it's over)....
