Can't We Be Friends?

Em7          Am  Em7  Am      D     
I took each word she said as gospel truth 

Dm        E7    G/B     Em7   Am
The way a silly little child would.

Em7       Am     Em7        D     
I can't excuse it on the grounds of youth, 

Dm        G   Em7    Dm    Dm7   Am
I was no babe in the wild, wild wood.

F          Am      Cdim            Am
She didn't mean it, I should have seen it, 

   Fdim  G        C   C/B - A7  Gdim - Dm7   D7/9 - G5
But now it's too late.


FM7  D7/9                  G           G7
 I  thought I'd found the girl of my dreams, 

CM7/6   Fdim  CM7/6    C       Edim  G#7 G7
 Now it seems, this is how the sto - ry ends --

G     Am7   Gdim     G       C9   
She's gonna turn me down and say, 

 Fm   Fdim      C     Edim Dm7 - Fdim -  G
"Can't we be friends?"


FM7 D7/9               G           G7
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong, 

CM7/6   Fdim CM7/6     C     Edim  G#7  G7
Not for long,  I  can see the way this ends --

G     Am7   Gdim     G       C9    Fm   Fdim      C
She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?"


F   Fdim(III)  Fm    Cdim  Dm7  C   G  Fdim  C
Why  should  I care though she gave me the  air,

C    E7      A    Em7          A7
Why should I cry,     heave a sigh, 

A7+5      D7/9      Em7  D7/9  G
And wonder why, and won - der why?

FM7 D7/9               G           G7
 I thought I found the gal I could trust, 

CM7/6  Fdim  CM7/6    C     Edim  G#7  G7
Whatta bust, this is how the sto - ry ends --

G     Am7   Gdim     G       C9    Fm   Fdim      C
She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends?"
