E C#m
[Verse]
G#m
I didn't want to be the one to forget
F#
I thought of everything I'd never regret
E
G# little time with you is all that I get
C#m
That's all we need because it's all we can take
G#m
One thing I never see the same when you're 'round
F#
I don't believe in him, his lips on the ground.
E
I want to take you to that place in the Roche
C#m
But no one gives us any time anymore
G#m
He asked me once if I'd look in on his dog
F#
You made an offer for it, then you ran off
E
I got a picture of us kids in my head
C#m
And all I hear is the last thing that you said:
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"
F#
I didn't want to anymore
[Chorus]
G#m E
And we will never be alone again
C#m
Cause it doesn't happen everyday
F#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
G#m
Can I give it up or give it away
E
Now I thought about what I wanna say
C#m
But I never really know where to go
F#
So I chained myself to a friend
G#m
'Cause I know it unlocks like a door
E
And we will never be alone again
C#m
Cause it doesn't happen everyday
F#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
G#m
Can I give it up or give it away
E
Now I thought about what I wanna say
C#m
But I never really know where to go
F#
So I chained myself to a friend
E C#m
Some more again
[Verse]
G#m
It didn't matter what they wanted to see
F#
You thought he saw someone that looked just like me
E
The summer memory that just never dies
C#m
We worked too long and hard to give it no time
G#m
He sees right through me, it's so easy with lies
F#
Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise
E
He runs the scissor at the seam in the wall
C#m
He cannot break it down or else he would fall
G#m
1000 lonely stars
F#
Hiding in the cold
E C#m
Take it, oh I don't wanna sing anymore
[Instrumental]
G#m F# E C#m
[Pre-Chorus]
G#m
"I listened to your problems, now listen to mine"
F#
I didn't want to anymore
[Chorus]

And we will never be alone again
C#m
Cause it doesn't happen everyday
F#

[Bridge]
G#m E
(I) don't understand,
C#m
don't get upset,
F#
I'm not with you.
G#m E
We're swimming around,
C#m F#
It's all I do when I'm with you
[Chorus]
G#m E
And we will never be alone again
C#m
Cause it doesn't happen everyday
F#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
G#m
Can I give it up or give it away
E
Now I thought about what I wanna say
