[Verse 1]
Fmaj7              Dm
Don't leave me here,
Am                  Cmaj7
Especially not with her.
Fmaj7                          Dm
You've heard of people getting lost,
Am                 Cmaj7
Here we don't even talk.
Fmaj7          Dm
Don't drink my fear,
Am                Cmaj7
When I've had too much.
Fmaj7                          Dm
You've heard of people getting lost,
Am                     Cmaj7
I wanna see you in the dark.

[Pre Chorus 1]
       Fmaj7
And it falls and it breaks,
       Dm
And it turns into something new.

[Chorus 1]
Fmaj7  Dm
I say, don't let me go,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why can't we be friends?
Fmaj7          Dm
And all night, I watch it burn,
Am          Cmaj7           Fmaj7    Dm
And you say why can't we be frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
Fmaj7    E7
I need a taxi.

[Instrumental]
Fmaj7 Dm Am Cmaj7

[Verse 2]
              Fmaj7         Dm
This world is pointless,
              Am      Cmaj7
If you're not here, whoah.
              Fmaj7         Dm
This world is pointless,
             Am               Cmaj7
If we're not self-destructing love.

[Pre Chorus 2]
       Fmaj7
And it falls and it breaks,
       Dm
And it turns into something new.
C E
       Fmaj7
And it falls and it breaks,
       Fmaj7
And it turns into something.

[Chorus 2]
Fmaj7  Dm
I say, don't let me go,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why can't we be friends?
Fmaj7            Dm
And all night, I watch it burn,
Am          Cmaj7           Fmaj7     Dm
And you say why can't we be frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
Fmaj7    E7
I need a taxi.

       Fmaj7
And it turns into something.

[Chorus 3]

I say, don't let me go,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why can't we be friends?
Fmaj7            Dm
And all night, I watch it burn,
Am          Cmaj7           Fmaj7     Dm
And you say why can't we be frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
Fmaj7    Emaj7
I need a taxi.
