Chords

[Intro] G G C G C [Verse 1]
G         C
  Here we are

G               C                G           C
  Two strangers standing in the doorway of a bar

G           C                 G
  Nervously talking about the past

                       C
Easy to laugh about it now

                         G                      C  N.C. D
It wasn't so long ago it hurt just to hear your name
[Chorus]
G                C            D
  Can old lovers ever just be friends?

              B7                 Em
One drink, it all comes flooding back again

    C                  Am
You look at me and you smile

          D                 G
I think I haven't felt like this in a while

       C               D
And we look out at the rain

       B7               Em
And we see how much our lives have changed

    C              Am       D                G
Our future's rearranged but somehow just the same
[Verse 2]
            C
And here we are

G               C               G             C
  Two strangers standing on the pavement by a car

G               C            G
  You rest your head upon my arm

                       C
Easy to laugh about it now

                            G
I watch your cigarette burn out

              C  D
On the pavement
[Chorus]
G                C            D
  Can old lovers ever just be friends?

           B7                Em
One drink, go their separate ways again

C                   Am
You and I won't fight

             D                 G
I think that maybe it's time I said good night

        C            D
But I'm happy that I came

        B7                  Em
Just to see your eyes still have their flame

      C                Am
Their beauty and their pain

   D                G
It feels like yesterday
[Post-Chorus]
             C
That I was yours

               D
And you were mine

             C                G
And we were living in paradise

                        C
And you button up your coat

                   D
And the bill gets paid

               C                 D      
And we leave behind this life we almost made
[Chorus]
G                C            D
  Can old lovers ever just be friends?

              B7                Em
One drink and go their separate ways again

    C                  Am
You look at me and you smile

          D                 G
I think I haven't felt like this in a while

       C               D
And we look out at the rain

       B7               Em
And we see how much our lives have changed

    C            Am         D                G
Our future's rearranged but somehow just the same
[Outro]
        C        D
