FRIENDS - John Michael Montgomery
-------------------------------------------------------

INTRO: A        E  A

                                   A
You say you want to be friends
E                                   A
That's a newly sharpened blade
                                 A
That's a dagger to the heart
E                            A
Of the promises we made
                                  F#m
There's a chapter full of pain
                       E
A season full of rain
   G#dim7              D                  E     E7
A dark and stormy night spent all alone

      A               D                      A
Ch: Friends get scattered by the wind
      A                     E        G#dim7             F#m   D E
      Tossed into the waves, lost for years on end
      A          D              A
      Friends slowly drift apart
      A                            E        G#dim7              F#m
      They give away their hearts, maybe call you now and then
      D                    E         A
      But you wanna be just friends

(A)          E  A 

                                      A
You say you love me very much
E                                    A
And you'll always hold me dear
                                   A
Those are the sweetest words
E                  A
I never wanna hear
                                F#m
What's a love without desire
                          E
A flame without a fire
G#dim7
Can't warm me late at night
D                       E     E7  
When I need you most

CHORUS

SOLO: A D A A E G#dim7 F#m D E

A          D              A
Friends slowly drift apart
                              E         G#dim7                         F#m
They give away their hearts, maybe call you now and then
D
Darling can' t you see

This is killing me
                         E      A
We can never be just friends.

A         E  A
