Deja Vu Lyrics with Chords
[Intro]
[D] [A]
[Verse – 1]
[D]Car rides to Malibu, strawberry [A]ice cream, one spoon for two
And trading [D]jackets, laughin’ ’bout how small
it looks [A]on you [ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah ah-ah-ah-ah ah-ah]
[D]Watchin’ reruns of Glee, bein’ [A]annoying singin’ in harmony
I bet she’s [D]braggin’ to all her friends sayin’ you’re so [A]unique (huh)
[Pre Chorus]
So when you gonna [D]tell her that we did that too?
She thinks it’s [A]special, but it’s all re-used
That was our [Bm7]place, I found it first, I made the jokes you tell to her
When she’s with [A]you
[Chorus]
Do you get déjà vu when she’s with [D]you?
Do you get déjà vu, hmm? [A] hmm
Do you get déjà vu, huh? [D] [A]
[Verse – 2]
Do you [D]call her, almost say my name?
‘Cause let’s be [A]honest, they kinda do sound the same
Another [D]actress, I hate to think that I was just [A]your type
I bet that [D]she knows Billy Joel ’cause you played her Uptown Girl
You’re [A]singin’ it together, now I bet you even tell her
How you [D]love her in between the chorus and the [A]verse ooooh
[Pre Chorus]
So when you gonna [D]tell her that we did that too?
She thinks it’s [A]special, but it’s all re-used
That was the [Bm7]show we talked about, played you the songs she’s singin’ now
When she’s with [A]you
[Chorus]
Do you get déjà vu when she’s with [D]you?
Do you get déjà vu, oh [A]
Do you get déjà vu?
[Bridge]
[D]Strawberry ice cream in Malibu, don’t act like we didn’t do that shit too
[A]You’re trading jackets like we used to do (yeah everything is all re-used)
[D]Play her piano but she doesn’t know that I was the one who taught you Billy Joel
[A]A different girl now but there’s nothing new (I know you get déjà vu)
[Outro]
[D] [A] I know you get déjà vu
[D] [A] I know you get déjà vu
