Verse 1
G
I know that you are angry
And think I should feel bad
Cadd9
But I gave you everything
And shared anything I had
Em
I know you say I'm angry
D Em7
And maybe this is true
Cadd9
But I was never angry
D
For something you didn't do
Chorus
D G
'Cause you take, take, take
G*/A* E* G*/A*
E* G
You think nobody would suspect someone naive
Dsus4 Em7 Cadd9
But you're just - as fake
Em D
And self-entitled as the next girl on the street, oh
G Dm
You were my friend
C
But from a hallway distance
Em
You never let me in
D
So how are we friends?
G Dm
And if I put you down
Dm Em7 Cadd9
Then why'd you stick a - round
Em
I think I figured it out
D Dsus2 D Dsus4 Cadd9
Am G
Everyone should know it - now
Verse 2
G
I know that you are sad
But so is everyone
Cadd9
We all feel like the world owes us
For everything it's done

Em
I know you think I'm crazy
D Em7
But just as much as you
Cadd9
'Cause I know that inside your brain
D
You're smarter than what you do
Chorus
D G
'Cause you take, take, take
G*/A* E* G*/A*
E* G
You think nobody would suspect someone naive
Dsus4 Em7 Cadd9
But you're just - as fake
Em D
And as unhappy as the next girl on the street, oh
G Dm
You were my friend
C
But from a hallway distance
Em
You never let me in
D
So how are we friends?
G Dm
And if I put you down
Dm Em7 Cadd9
Then why'd you stick a - round
Em
I think I figured it out
D Dsus2 D Dsus4 Cadd9
Everyone should know it - now
Bridge
Am*
I was just walking down
C*
Thinking about you
D G F
And how we found one another
Em D
Is it too late for the truth
Chorus
G Dm
You were my friend
Em7 Cadd9
But from a hallway distance
Em
You never let me in
D
So how are we friends?
G Dm
And if I put you down
Dm Em7 Cadd9
Then why'd you stick around
Em
I think I figured it out
D Dsus2 D Dsus4 Cadd9 Am
Everyone should know it - now
Outro
G Dm
Look at your friends
Em7 Cadd9
And everything they've given
Em
They're in the palm of your hand
D Dsus4 Cadd9 Am
Don't pretend you're inn - ocent
G
Don't pretend
