Why Cant We Be Friends

Tom: Dm

                        C
Why can't we be friends?
G                    Am
It was so much easier
Dm                F
Before we got our feelings hurt
        C
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Dm         G            C
Why can't we be friends?
   Em                      Am
I used to be so close to you
A#                               F
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
                      C
'Cause I can't pretend that it's easy
           G           C
Why can't we be friends?


[Verse]
                     Em
We used to thick as thieves
              Am     A#
Hangin' every night
                  F
Man, I miss those days
E                 Dm
God, I miss those times
G
C
Then something changed
Em                             Am
It got weird and we don't know why
A#             F
We can't talk about
C                   Dm    G
What we're thinkin' now


[Pre-Chorus]
F                     E
All I really wanna do is hang out
Dm                       C
Voicemail told me you're busy now
       F
Well I know what you said
      C
But I don't understand it


[Chorus]
                        C
Why can't we be friends?
G                    Am
It was so much easier
Dm                F
Before we got our feelings hurt
        C
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Dm         G            C
Why can't we be friends?
   Em                      Am
I used to be so close to you
A#                               F
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
                      C
'Cause I can't pretend that it's easy
           G           C
Why can't we be friends?


[Verse 2]

I guess it makes sense
        Em               Am       A#
Cuz' we probably got too close
     F         C
I am sorry for
                   Dm   G
Not being more careful

C                            Em              Am         A#
But tell me the problem with finally feeling known?
                  F
I was free around you
C5               Dm       G
I felt like me around you


[Pre-Chorus]
    F                       C
Now every time we're in the same room
    Dm                       C
Our friends are around but I just see you
         F
Well, it is what it is
      C           G
But I wish it was different


[Chorus]
                C
Why can't we be friends?
Em                    Am
It was so much easier
A#                 F
Before we got our feelings hurt
               C
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Dm        G            C
Why can't we be friends?
  E                      Am
I used to be so close to you
A#             F
What's a buddy supposed to do now?
                C
Cuz' I can't pretend that it's easy
Dm        G            C
Why can't we be friends?


[Bridge]
G   A                           Dm    C     G       Am
The only thing I got for you is love, love, love
G                         C     E
And I guess that's why we can't

       Am   A#  C
We can't
F          C
We can't


[Chorus]
Dm        G            C
Why can't we be friends?
G                    Am
It was so much easier
    A#                        F
Before we got our feelings hurt
                C
And I can't pretend that it's easy
Dm        G
Why can't we be
   Dm                        C  F C
Oh, why can't we be friends?
