Verse
A# Gm
When you stare from across the room
D# A#
I can't tell if you're lookin' at me
D# F
Or just lookin' through
D# A#
The others celebrate the end of the work week
D# C7
But it's Tuesday for me and you
D# A#
To say that we're just friends would never do us justice
D# F
We're a couple of gems
A#
Swept into the dustbin
[Verse 2]
A# Gm
When you pay your respects to the past
D# A#
I can't tell if it's a nervous laugh
D# F
And you think we could've made it last
D# A#
The others frail and they cut of their tails
D# C7
Their dreams dance to death in their glass
D# A#
We're more than just dreamers when we ourselves believe it
D# F
We have the rest of our lives
A#
Just gotta reach out and steal it
[Bridge]
Gm D# F#
Ooh-ooh, you're sellin' me up the river
C# F#
I can't seem to remember
C# D#
That you said you just needed a friend
F A#
Just a friend
[Verse 3]
A# Gm
When you speak are you holdin' back
D# A#
It's all I've asked between now and the past
D# F
I'd love to hear you answer that
D# A#
They'll turn on the lights and we'll say our goodnights
D# C7
Though they're not good enough to last
D# A#
While I'm tossin' and turnin' babe is your love burnin'
D# F
Or have we laid it to rest
D# F
Are we really just friends
[Outro]
D# F
Oh, are we really just friends
(repeat and end on E)
