Chorus:
Em G Am C
I have haunted many photographs
Em G Am C
In the background, in the fore
Em G Dm C
And as many loves that have crossed my path
Em G Am C
In the end, it was friends
Em G Am C
In the end, it was friends
Em G Am C
In the end, it was friends
Em G Em
It was friends who broke my heart
Em G Am
Well fair dues, nobody prepares you
C Em G Am C
And nobody's prepared, nobody's prepared
Em G
And they tell you "Just you wait
Am C Em
It kills you, and only love can break you
G Am
More the more you care
F#m7-5 B7 Em A C
And all, and all in love is fair"
D#dim7
But it's not fair
Chorus
And I've pushed myself to be vulnerable
And then slept with one eye wide
All that pain and nothing gained in the end
In the end, it was friends
In the end, it was friends
In the end, it was friends
In the end, (In the end) it was friends
In the, in the end
In the, in the end
In the, in the end
In the end, it was friends
In the end, it was friends
In the end, it was friends
Rm D C Bm Em
It was friends who broke my heart
