Verse
A D
I lost a friend
D Bm
Like keys in a sofa
F#m
Like a wallet in the backseat
E
Like ice in the summer heat
D
I lost a friend
Bm
Like sleep on a red-eye
F#m
Like money on a bad bet
Like time worrying about
A E D
Every bad thing that hasn't happened yet
[Pre-Chorus]
D Bm
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight
F#m E
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made
D
Replaying fights
Bm F#m
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight
A
I lost a friend, I lost a friend
[Chorus]
D Bm
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me
F#m
Say, "I know that he don't need me
A D
'Cause he made a little too much money to be 20 and sad"
Bm
And I'll be fine without him
F#m
But all I do is write about him
A D Dm
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
A
Never had
[Verse 2]
D
I'm on the mend
Bm
Like I'm wearing a neck brace
F#m
Like I'm sleeping in my own place
E
Like I'm pulling all the stitches out of my own face
D
I'm on the mend
Bm
Like I'm icing a new sprain
F#m
Like I'm walking on a new cane
Like it's been a couple days
A D
Since I slipped and said something sorta like your name
[Pre-Chorus]
D Bm
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight
F#m E
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made
D
Replaying fights
Bm F#m
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight
A
I'm on the mend, but I lost a friend
[Chorus]
D Bm
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me
F#m
Say, "I know that he don't need me
A D
'Cause he made a little too much money to be 20 and sad"
Bm
And I'll be fine without him
F#m
But all I do is write about him
A D
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
[Bridge]
D Bm F#m
I'd apologize if I thought it might make a difference
A
Or make you listen
D Bm
I'd apologise if it was black and white
F#m
But life is different
A D
Just try to listen to me now
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm F#m
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight
A
I lost a friend, I lost a friend
[Chorus]
D Bm
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me
F#m
Say, "I know that he don't need me
A D
'Cause he made a little too much money to be 20 and sad"
Bm
And I'll be fine without him
F#m
But all I do is write about him
A D Eadd9
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
A
Never had
