Tom: C
C Em F (×2)
[Verse 1]
C Em F
I'm thinking 'bout you in the front porch light
C Em F
zipped up my coat before we went outside
G Am C F
you chased your breath in the foggy night
G Am C F
sometimes we still talk but you seem so shy
C Em F
so let's just act like we don't have the time
C Em F
but I'd come over to apologize
G Am C F
I'm in your city only for the night, we could
G Am C F
go to that bar that you swear you don't like
[Chorus]
C Em F
she calls me old friend
C Em F
I call her old friend
C Em F
yeah she's my old friend and nothing more than that
C Em F (×2)
[Verse 2]
C Em F
hey I just picked up a bottle of wine
C Em F
I drink too much so could you help this time
G Am C F
I'll split it with you in the moonlight
G Am C F
set out a towel and hope the bugs don't bite
C Em F C
I'll buy a house before I'm 25 if I get lucky
Em F
from the songs I write
G Am C F
I think you'd look good by my fireside
G Am C
we could talk in the morning if we time it
F
right
[Chorus]
C Em F
she calls me old friend
C Em F
I call her old friend
C Em F
yeah she's my old friend and nothing more than that
C Em F (×2)
[Verse 3]
C Em
but now I'm stumbling through the streets
F
alone
C Em F
I thought I'd hear from you weeks ago
G Am C
I'll probably see you when you get back
F
home
G Am C
haven't met your new boy, I bet I like him
F
though
C Em F
I'm dry heaving in an empty bed
C Em F
tied a rope to you and split the ends
G Am C F
I'll never have the chance to make amends 'cause
G Am C F
I'll never be more than your old friend
