B        E 
I lost a friend 
     E             C#m 
Like keys in a sofa 
                             G#m 
Like a wallet in the backseat 
                       F# 
Like ice in the summer heat 
         E 
I lost a friend 
                       C#m 
Like sleep on a red-eye 
                    G#m 
Like money on a bad bet 
  
Like time worrying about 
B                           F#       E 
Every bad thing that hasn't happened yet
[Pre-Estribillo]
E                     C#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
G#m                          F# 
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made 
          E 
Replaying fights 
                      C#m                  G#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
             B 
I lost a friend, I lost a friend
[Estribillo]
          E                  C#m 
I lost my mind, and nobody believes me 
                           G#m 
Say, "I know that he don't need me 
          B                                         E 
'Cause he made a little too much money to be 20 and sad" 
                     C#m 
And I'll be fine without him 
                       G#m 
But all I do is write about him 
        B                                E     Em 
How the hell did I lose a friend I never had? 
      B 
Never had
[Estrofa]
           E 
I'm on the mend 
                             C#m 
Like I'm wearing a neck brace 
                                G#m 
Like I'm sleeping in my own place 
                                         F# 
Like I'm pulling all the stitches out of my own face 
           E 
I'm on the mend 
                           C#m 
Like I'm icing a new sprain 
                              G#m 
Like I'm walking on a new cane 
  
Like it's been a couple days 
        B                                          E 
Since I slipped and said something sorta like your name
[Pre-Estribillo]
E                     C#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
G#m                          F# 
I'll be lying awake counting all the mistakes I've made

Replaying fights 
                      C#m                  G#m 
I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
              B 
I'm on the mend, but I lost a friend
[Estribillo]
          E                   C#m

[Puente]
E          C#m                      G#m 
I'd apologize if I thought it might make a difference 
   B 
Or make you listen 
E            C#m 
I'd apologise if it was black and white 
    G#m 
But life is different 
     B                   E 
Just try to listen to me now
[Pre-Estribillo]

I know I'll be alright, but I'm not tonight 
             B 
I lost a friend, I lost a friend
