INTRO: A        E  A 
 
                                   A 
You say you want to be friends 
E                                   A 
That's a newly sharpened blade 
                                 A 
That's a dagger to the heart 
E                            A 
Of the promises we made 
                                  F#m 
There's a chapter full of pain 
                       E 
A season full of rain 
   G#?7              D                  E     E7 
A dark and stormy night spent all alone 
 

      A               D                      A 
Ch: Friends get scattered by the wind 
      A                     E        G#?7             F#m   D E 
      Tossed into the waves, lost for years on end 
      A          D              A 
      Friends slowly drift apart 
      A                            E        G#?7              F#m 
      They give away their hearts, maybe call you now and then 
      D                    E         A 
      But you wanna be just friends 
 

( A )          E  A  
 
                                      A 
You say you love me very much 
E                                    A 
And you'll always hold me dear 
                                   A 
Those are the sweetest words 
E                  A 
I never wanna hear 
                                F#m 
What's a love without desire 
                          E 
A flame without a fire 
G#?7 
Can't warm me late at night 
D                       E     E7   
When I need you most 
 
CHORUS 
 
SOLO: 
A D A A E G#?7 F#m D E 
 
A          D              A 
Friends slowly drift apart 
                              E         G#?7                         F#m 
They give away their hearts, maybe call you now and then 
D 
Darling can' t you see 
 
This is killing me 
                         E      A 
We can never be just friends. 
 

A         E  A
