Verse 1:
[G#m]In good old [C#m]times, rem[A]ember my fr[B]iend
[E]Moon was so br[A]ight and so c[C#m]lose to us, so[E]me[D#/E]times
[G#m]We were still [C#m]blind and [A]deaf, what a [B]bliss?
E A C#m E D#/E B(Hit once, let ring)
Painting the world of our own, for our own eyes, now?
[(B)]"Can we [A]ever have what we ha[E]d then?
[F#m]Friendship un[C#m]breakable
[B]Love means [E]nothing to me
[A]Without [F#m]blinking an [Bsus4]eye
[B]I'd... f[F#m]ade, if so n[C#m]eeded,
[B]All those [E]moments with you
A F#m G#sus4II G#
If I had you beside me"
Verse 2:
[G#m]One cloudy [C#m]day we [A]both lost the [B]game?
[E]We drifted so [A]far and a[C#m]way[E] [D#/E]
[G#m]Nothing is [C#m]quite as [A]cruel as a [B]child
E A C#m E D#/E B(Hit once, let ring)
Sometimes we break the unbreakable, sometimes?
[(B)]"And we'll n[A]ever have what we [G#/E]had then
[F#m]Friendship un[C#m]broken
[B]Love means no[E]thing to me
[A]Without b[F#m]linking an [Bsus4]eye
[B]I'd... f[F#m]ade, if so n[C#m]eeded,
[B]All those mo[E]ments with you
A F#m G#sus4II G# G#m
If I had you beside me now"

*Palm Mute*
[G#5-A#5-B5]I was un-a[A]ble to c[E]ope with what [F#]you said
[G#5]Some- [A#5]times [B5]we [A]need to be [E]cruel to be [F#]kind
[G#5]Child [A#5]that [B5]I [A]was, could [E]not see the [F#]reason
[G#5]Fee-[A#5]lings [B5]I [A]had were but [E]sham and a [F#]lie?
Bridge:
[Bm]I h[G]ave n[D]ever forg[A]otten your sm[G]ile
[A]Your eyes, oh, [Bm]Shamandalie
[G]Time went [A]by, many mem[D]ories d[G]ied
[Em]I'm writing this down to [F#]ease my pain

[Bm]You [G]saw [D]us always [A]clearer than [G]me
How [A]we were [Bm]never meant to be
E|---------| B|---------| G|---------| D|-4-2-----| A|-----5-4-| E|---------|
[G]Love den[A]ied meant the [D]friendship would [G]die
[Em]Now I have seen the l[F#sus4]ight[F#]
[Em]These memories make me [F#]cry
