[Intro]
C Em Am F G
[Verse 1]
C Em Am
Laughing at a picture, swearing we all look the worst
F G
Flirting with the waiter so we get a free dessert
C Em Am
I can tell you anything, the roses and the dirt
F G
What a way to spend the night, laughing till it hurts, oh
[Chorus]
F
And I call out the moment
Am G
'Cause I can't help but say
Just how lucky we are to meet up at a bar at the end of the day
F
Took a long time to notice
Am G
Took a long time to find
That the littlest things and the people you're with end up saving your life
F G
Who knew, who knew
C Em Am
I just needed a friend like you
F G
Who knew, who knew
[Verse 2]
C Em Am
Telling the same stories, but they still feel new to us
F G
Kinda underrated finding people you can trust
C Em
When I make stupid choices
Am
Know you'll give it to me straight
F G
When I make 'em again, I know you'll be there all the same, oh
[Chorus]
F
And I call out the moment
Am G
'Cause I can't help but say
Just how lucky we are to meet up at a bar at the end of the day
F
Took a long time to notice
Am G
Took a long time to find
That the littlest things and the people you're with end up saving your life
F G
Who knew, who knew
C Em Am
I just needed a friend like you

Who knew, who knew
C Em Am
I just needed a friend like you
