I have a friend
She's just a friend
I tried to comfort and defend
I gave her what you might call advice
But nothing like that comes without a price
The rumour was a cruel surprise
And she dissolved before my eyes
.................................................[G/f#].....
I offered my hand and hers and mine entwined
I thought about back then when I wished that she had been mine
..................................[G/f#].....
There's no use in shedding any tears
He's no good to you the way he is
........[G/f#].....................
He's beyond forgiving and believing
Half of his heart is torn like paper
..................................[G/f#]......
It's sweet as the syrup from the maple
But that's not the part of him you're leaving
