B        E 
I lost a friend 
     E             C#m 
Like keys in a sofa 
                             G#m 
Like a wallet in the backseat 
                       F# 
Like ice in the summer heat 
         E 
I lost a friend 
                       C#m 
Like sleep on a red-eye 
                    G#m 
Like money on a bad bet 

Like time worrying about 
B                           F#       E 
Every bad thing that hasn't happened yet 
 

E                     C#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
G#m                          F# 
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made 
          E 
Replaying fights 
                      C#m                  G#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
                          B 
I lost a friend, I lost a friend 



          E                C#m 
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me 
                           G#m 
Say, "I know that he don't need me 
          B                                         E 
'Cause he made a little too much money to be 20 and sad" 
                     C#m 
And I'll be fine without 'em 
                       G#m 
But all I do is write about 'em 
        B                                E    Em 
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had? 
      B 
Never had 

           E 
I'm on the mend 
                           C#m 
Like I'm wearing a neck brace 
                               G#m 
Like I'm sleeping in my own place 
                           F# 
Like I'm pulling all the stitches out of my own face 
           E 
I'm on the mend 
                           C#m 
Like I'm icing a new sprain 
                              G#m 
Like I'm walking on a new cane 

Like it's been a couple days 
        B                                          E 
Since I slipped and said something sorta like your name 



E                     C#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
G#m                          F# 
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made 
          E 
Replaying fights 
                      C#m           G#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
                              B 
I'm on the mend, but I lost a friend 



          E                   C#m 
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me 
                           G#m

                     C#m

How the hell did I lose a friend I never had? 



E          C#m                      G#m 
I'd apologize if I thought it might make a difference 
   B 
Or make you listen 
E            C#m 
I'd apologise if it was black and white 
    G#m 
But life is different 
     B                   E 
Just try to listen to me now 



                        C#m         G#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
                          B 
I lost a friend, I lost a friend 



          E                C#m

Never had
