Intro: G Am7 Gdim G C9 Fm Fdim C 

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 
F7M   D7/9                  G           G7  
 I  thought I'd found the girl of my dreams,   
Cm7/9   Fdim  Cm7/9    C       Edim  G#7 G7  
 Now it seems, this is how the story    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"  
F7M D7/9               G           G7  
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong 
Cm7/9   Fdim Cm7/9      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       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   
A7/13-       D7/9       Em7   D7/9  G  
And wonder why, and wonder    why  
F7M   D7/9                 G             G7  
 I thought I found the gal I could trust  
Cm7/9    Fdim  Cm7/9    C     Edim  G#7  G7  
Whatta bust, this is how the story ends   
G      Am7    Gdim      G        C9     Fm    Fdim       C  
She's gonna turn me down and say, "Can't we be friends"
