Tom: C
F
I lost a friend
Dm
Like keys in a sofa
Am
Like a wallet in the backseat
G
Like ice in the summer heat
F
I lost a friend
Dm
Like sleep on a red eye
Am
Like money on a bad bet
G
Like time worrying about every bad thing that hasn’t happened yet
[Pre-Chorus]
F Dm
I know I’ll be alright
Am
But I’m not tonight
G
I’ll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I’ve made
F
Replaying fights
Dm
I know I’ll be alright
Am
But I’m not tonight
[Chorus]
N.C
I lost a friend
G
I lost a friend
F
I lost my mind
Dm
And nobody believes me
Am
Say I know that he don’t need me
G F
‘Cause he made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
Dm
And I’ll be fine without them
Am
But all I do is write about ‘em
G F Dm
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
C
Never had
[Verse 2]
F
I’m on the mend
Dm
Like I’m wearing a neck brace
Am
Like I’m sleeping at my own place
G
Like I’m pulling all the stitches out of my own face
F
I’m on the mend
Dm
Like I’m an icing a new sprain
Am
Like I’m walking on a new cane
G F
Like it’s been a couple days since I slipped and said something sorta like your name
[Pre-Chorus]
F Dm
I know I’ll be alright
Am
But I’m not tonight
G
I’ll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I’ve made
F
Replaying fights
Dm
I know I’ll be alright
Am
But I’m not tonight
[Chorus]
N.C G
I'm on the mend, but I lost a friend
F
I lost my mind
Dm
And nobody believes me
Am
Say I know that he don’t need me
G F
‘Cause he made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
Dm
And I’ll be fine without them
Am
But all I do is write about ‘em
G F
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
[Bridge]
Dm Am G
I’d apologize if I thought it might make a difference or make you listen
F Dm
I’d apologize if it was black and white
Am
But life is different
G F
Just try to listen to me now
[Chorus]
F Dm
I know I’ll be alright
Am
But I’m not tonight
G
I lost a friend
N.C
I lost a friend
F
I lost my mind
Dm
And nobody believes me
Am
Say I know that he don’t need me
G F
‘Cause he made a little too much money to be twenty and sad
Dm
And I’ll be fine without them
Am
But all I do is write about ‘em
G F Dm
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had?
[Outro]
C
Never had
