Friends I the Mighty
Intro lead in: Ab
[Bbm] You left the room and all my senses left with you
and now my [Eb]body's just a place for blood.
[Bbm] If I could taste then I'd be shaking in my place
just at the [Eb]thought of what your lips taste of.
Oh, you love to string me [Bbm]along and I know it,
but resistance always lingers on my t[Eb]ongue.
You're afraid you'll never bel[Bbm]ong.
And I say it, but it's always tongue in [Eb]cheek.
[(]I [Eb]cho[)]ose all the right words but the words work against me.
[Db]Take my pride but you'll never take all my [Fm]friends.
[Db]Take my life and you'll never feel whole [Fm]again.
But if you're [Bbm]gonna make [Ab]empty [F#]threats, then how [Eb]dare you?
If the [Bbm]thought of an ab[Ab]sent [F#]God doesn't scare [Eb]you...
If you [Bbm]want me to [Ab]hold my [F#]breath while you [Eb]carry [F#]on, then come [Eb]on!
[Bbm] I must admit, there was a time when you were it.
You had my [Eb]body, had my soul, my love.
[Bbm] But how we switched... I cracked the code,
I scratched the itch, and you're [Eb]aware the spell is wearing off.
You no longer [Bbm]string me along, and you know it.
Bet it eats away at that confidence you f[Eb]eign.
From afar I fell for it [Bbm]all,
but close up it comes off trite and [Eb]cheap.
[(]Yo[Eb]u c[)]ould take it all off and I'd still keep my mind clean.
[Db]Take my pride but you'll never take all my [Fm]friends.
[Db]Take my life and you'll never feel whole [Fm]again.
But if you're [Bbm]gonna make [Ab]empty [F#]threats, then how [Eb]dare you?
If the [Bbm]thought of an ab[Ab]sent [F#]God doesn't scare [Eb]you...
If you [Bbm]want me to [Ab]hold my [F#]breath while you [Eb]carry [F#]on, then come [Eb]on!
I've got this [Bbm]medicine [Ab]in my [F#]head.
Every [Bbm]day it [Ab]secretes and [F#]tells me what I should have said.
[Bbm]So I [Ab]live in [F#]dread...
That every [Bbm]thought that I [Ab]voca[F#]lize should be silence instead.
I've got this [Bbm]notebook that [Ab]begs for [F#]love.
I hear it [Bbm]screaming: "Come [Ab]on boy, [F#]fill me like that whiskey cup!"
[Bbm]So I [Ab]ripped him [F#]up...
Then I [Bbm]poured out a [Ab]sip in [F#]remembrance of my paper-cuts.
I've got this [Bbm]painting that [Ab]looks just like [F#]you.
I'm sure the [Bbm]one who laid [Ab]brush to [F#]canvas simply had no clue
[Bbm]of the d[Ab]amage th[F#]ey'd do. With every [Bbm]look that [Ab]I give, it[F#] burns. Let it burn!
During solo play: Bbm , Ab , F# , Eb
[Db]Take my pride but you'll never take all my [Fm]friends.
[Db]Take my life and you'll never feel whole [Fm]again.
But if you're [Bbm]gonna make [Ab]empty [F#]threats, then how [Eb]dare you?
If the [Bbm]thought of an ab[Ab]sent [F#]God doesn't scare [Eb]you...
If you [Bbm]want me to [Ab]hold my [F#]breath while you [Eb]carry [F#]on, then come [Eb]on!
[F#](Woah) Then come[Eb] on!
[F#](Woah) Then come[Eb] on!
[(]Oh[Eb] co[)]me on!
