Chords

[Verse 1]
Bb
Ain't like we've been friends

          Gm
all these years,

F
Ain’t like I've been there

   Eb
to dry all of your tears.

Bb                       Gm
Don't want to assume anything,

F
Guess it always seemed

   Eb
so obvious to me.

           F
All those late nights,

Gm
Car rides,

Eb                 Bb
Two AM talks about our lives,

F                 Gm
Has it all meant nothing

Eb
to you?
[Chorus]
       F                     Gm
If I'm not the one you want,

     Eb                    Bb
Go ahead and break my heart,

        F                 Gm
I won't ask to hold your hand,

        Eb              Bb
I won't ask for anything.

          F             Gm
I'll just stand by your side,

          Eb            Bb
Act like everything is fine,

          F         Gm
And do my best to pretend,

           Eb
That we're nothing more than,

Eb
Nothing more than,
Friends. [Verse 2]
Bb                 Gm
I'm not asking for apologies,

        F
Yeah, I know that you

      Eb
don't owe me anything.

     Bb
But, boy I could have

          Gm
used some clarity,

F
Could it have hurt

          Eb
to have a bit more honesty?

                     F
Bout all those late nights,

Gm
Car rides,

       Eb
Did it all mean nothing

   Bb
in your mind?

F
You dont have to

Gm
leave me in the dark.
[Chorus]
       F                     Gm
If I'm not the one you want,

     Eb                    Bb
Go ahead and break my heart,

        F                 Gm
I won't ask to hold your hand,

        Eb              Bb
I won't ask for anything.

          F             Gm
I'll just stand by your side,

          Eb            Bb
Act like everything is fine,

          F         Gm
And do my best to pretend,

           Eb
That we're nothing more than,

Eb
Nothing more than,
Friends. * Inserts Cool Electric Guitar Solo * [Bridge]
            F               Gm
Why did you leave me in the dark?

            Eb               Bb
Why did you have to break my heart?

      F                Gm
If a friend is all you want,

           Eb              Bb
You didn't have to lead me on.

          F
All those late nights,

Gm
Car rides,

Eb
Was it all just a game

       Bb
inside your mind?

F
It's good,

Gm
It's fine,

Eb
You can't choose who you love.
[Chorus]
       F                     Gm
If I'm not the one you want,

     Eb                    Bb
Go ahead and break my heart,

        F                 Gm
I won't ask to hold your hand,

        Eb              Bb
I won't ask for anything.

          F             Gm
I'll just stand by your side,

          Eb            Bb
Act like everything is fine,

          F         Gm
And do my best to pretend,

           Eb
That we're nothing more than,

Eb
Nothing more than,
Friends.
