Standard (EADGBE)

Babe, just say you miss me, is it that hard?

Too long since I've heard about our love

Am I in this by myself? Hey yeah

With rose colored lenses on my store bought frames

To see something other than these blues and grays

I need something different, hey yeah, yeah, yeah

Cause you ain't feeling the same

[Hook]

Who knows, maybe I'm crazy,

that's one big maybe

 But even a fool knows when it's gold, gold, gold

I know pyrite from 24 karat, yeah

Cubic's from genuine diamond, yeah

A call from the woman who loves you and hello from a friend

I know when it's real, I know how to tell

I know the difference between what you say and how you feel

Oh, oh I know when it's real

Verse 2

Oh, I can tell the difference every time that you call

But I don’t need a drink I need some time in my car

Time to drive and think, time to park and cry

You shoulda known you were beautiful

You shoulda known what I saw in you, yeah

Please forgive me for feeling like it’s all your fault

A heavy heart can’t carry blame for the loss

[Hook]

Verse 3

You might not notice but I’m a man with pride

And this hurts me baby deep down, deep down

I can’t let go of this, gotta know I tried

It’s pathetic baby don’t lie, don’t lie

I’m a candle, you’re the sun

And you’re burning baby, you're burning baby

Burning up, burning up

Burning up, burning up, burning up, yeah

Outro

Pyrite from 24 karat yeah

Cubic’s from genuine diamond yeah

A call from the woman who loves you

And hello from a friend

We'll never be more than friends

We'll never be..
