Chords for Stuart A. Staples - Old Friends

[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
It's not that I don't love you
Are tired of your ways.
[E] I want you to know _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] That I'm always thinking of you
You know, I'll take you with me wherever [E] I go
But _ _ _ _ [F#] I catch myself in the mirror [F#m] and I remember I gotta do something [E] about I like _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] I'm as empty as the clothes that I lay crumpled where they fell
[E] She's a love _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] I'm as empty as the tin green bottle hanging in my mind from [E] the night before
in _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] an ashtray full of moans
Spend thinking about the things I should [E] have done _ _
_ I say goodbye to another [F#m] old friend
_ Yeah, they stay three seconds [E] in _
Through _ the laughter and [F#m] the tears _
Through _ every state that [E] I've been in _
_ And I know they don't [F#m] wanna hurt me
But _ I can see [E] in their eye
That _ _ they're killing [F#m] me so gently
How _ can I ever [E] say goodbye? _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] For as young men we collided through these streets and how we hit [E] this time running _
And _ _ _ [F#m] we were so sure of being us we flattened everything that [E] stood in our path _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] Now I wake up and have to [B] find [F#m] myself
all the shit that once told [E] me the
I say _ _ goodbye to so [F#m] many old friends
Yeah, _ I left them [E] to the wind
And _ _ there ain't much [F#m] point in chasing _
Feelings you can never [E] get back again
_ _ This is [F#m] sunlight and this one _
_ Give me a [A] match in our [E] remedy
of _ _ the time when [F#m] we were younger
And _ we were stealing our [E] first red
And I thought that it's [F#m] easy to die
And _ you run away [E] at the time _
_ Oh
Let this ride get [F#m] him fluttered
_ He ever slowed down [E] to this time
For I've been drunk and stoned [F#m] and feeling mellow _
_ That's how I've been
[E] Looking _ _ _ _ at the bird shakes [F#m] around
I'm thinking _ _ I don't know more than [E] I knew _
And it's not that [F#m] I don't love you
Or I'm tired of your [E] ways _ _
_ If I could only [F#m] take you with me
If _ I could only [E] please this feeling _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] _ _ _ _ _ _
