INTRO:  E  C#m  (x3)


E           C#m     E           C#m
The way she walks, the way she talks
E           C#m     B
How long can I pretend?
  A        B              E  C#m
Oh I can?t help it, I?m in love
         A                B
With the girl of my best friend


E          C#m    E          C#m
Her lovely hair, her skin so fair
E         C#m        B
I could go on, never end
  A        B              E  C#m
Oh I can?t help it, I?m in love
         A       B        E
With the girl of my best friend


 A          B             E        C#m
I want to tell her how I love her so
    B                        E
And hold her in my arms, but then
A            B                E       C#m
What if she got real mad and told him so?
       F#                        B
I could never face either one again


E            C#m    E         C#m
The way they kiss, their happiness
E              C#m          B
Will my aching heart ever mend?
   A       B           E  C#m
Or will I always be in love
         A       B        E     C#m
With the girl of my best friend
E     C#m
Never end
E           C#m
Will it ever end
E            C#m
Please let it end
