Intro: F# D#m A#m G# F# D#m
A#m
I didn’t want to be the one to forget
G#
I thought of everything I’d never regret
F#
A little time with you is all that I get
D#m
That’s all we need because it’s all we can take
A#m
One thing I never see the same when you’re ’round
G#
I don’t believe in him, his lips on the ground.
F#
I want to take you to that place in the Roche
D#m
But no one gives us any time anymore
A#m
He asked me once if I’d look in on his dog
G#
You made an offer for it, then you ran off
F#
I got a picture of us kids in my head
D#m
And all I hear is the last thing that you said:
A#m
“I listened to your problems, now listen to mine”
G#
I didn’t want to anymore
A#m G# F#
And we will never be alone again
Fm D#m
Cause it doesn’t happen everyday
A#m G#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Fm A#m
Can I give it up or give it away
G# F#
Now I thought about what I wanna say
Fm D#m
But I never really know where to go
A#m G#
So I chained myself to a friend
Fm A#m
‘Cause I know it unlocks like a door
G# F#
And we will never be alone again
Fm D#m
Cause it doesn’t happen everyday
A#m G#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
Fm A#m
Can I give it up or give it away

F# D#m
Some more again
A#m
It didn’t matter what they wanted to see
G#
You thought he saw someone that looked just like me
F#
The summer memory that just never dies
D#m
We worked too long and hard to give it no time
A#m
He sees right through me, it’s so easy with lies
G#
Cracks in the road that I would try and disguise
F#
He runs the scissor at the seam in the wall
D#m
He cannot break it down or else he would fall
A#m
1000 lonely stars
G#
Hiding in the cold
F# D#m
Take it, oh I don’t wanna sing anymore
( A#m G# F# D#m )
A#m

A#m F#
(I) don’t understand,
D#m
don’t get upset,
G#
I’m not with you.
A#m F#
We’re swimming around,
D#m G#
It’s all I do when I’m with you
A#m F#
And we will never be alone again
D#m
Cause it doesn’t happen everyday
G#
Kinda counted on you being a friend
