Tom: E E A E A [Verse 1] E A Who’s gonna tell us the stories, that our textbooks don’t? E A Tales of love that stay blurry, cause our courses won’t C#m B Ignore the way they’re designed to erase the past A To keep good intentions secret B To force.. a mask E Too many handwritten letters A Signed to: my dearest, with love E A All pulled from their papers, ripped out as cover up C#m B To disguise endearment, as friendly notes A B It doesn’t take a scholar, to know how this one goеs B And historians will call them [Chorus] E A Close friends, bеsties, roommates, colleagues, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers E A Sidekicks, family, good pals, buddies, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers [Verse 2] E 40 years living together A Wearing the same wedding bands E Two kids and a golden retriever A Just friends don’t live like that C#m They don’t look at each other B With love in their eyes A B With hopes to settle down for the rest of their lives E How many decades of hiding? A 21 centuries of hate E Some things may not’ve been okay back then A C#m But it’s sure all right today B Too afraid to call it what it is A B It doesn’t take a scholar, to understand this B And historians will call them [Chorus] E A Close friends, bеsties, roommates, colleagues, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers E A Sidekicks, family, good pals, buddies, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers [Verse 3] A Keep it hidden B Rewrite history A Leave it wrapped up in a mystery B Because no one can figure it out (I think they figured it out) C#m B A Stash the proof, hide the evidence B C#m Keep it locked until it’s relevant B A Because they can’t figure it out (I think they figured it out) B A Because no one can figure it out B I think they figured it out And historians will call them [Chorus] E A Close friends, bеsties, roommates, colleagues, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers E A Sidekicks, family, good pals, buddies, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers [Chorus] E A Close friends, bеsties, roommates, colleagues, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers E A Sidekicks, family, good pals, buddies, B Anything but lovers A History hates lovers
