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