[Intro]
Am7 Dm7 G C C/B
[Verse 1]
Am7 Dm7
No I think I'll stay in tonight
G C C/B
Skip the conversations and the "oh, I'm fines
Am7 Dm7
No I'm no stranger to surprise
G C C/B
This paper town has let me down too many times
Am7 Dm7
Why do I even try, give me a reason why
G C C/B
I thought that I could trust you, never mind
Am7 Dm7
Why all the switching sides, where do I draw the line?
G C C/B
I guess I'm too naive to read the signs
[Chorus 1]
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
All they ever do is let me down
G
Every time I let somebody in
C C/B
Then I find out what they're all about
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
Wonder where they're all hidin' out
G
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
C C/B
Gotta get up out of this town
[Post-Chorus 1]
Am7 Dm7
Oh
G C C/B
Yeah
[Verse 2]
Am7 Dm7
I stay up, talkin' to the moon
G C C/B
Been feelin' so alone in every crowded room
Am7 Dm7
Can't help but feel like something's wrong, yeah
G C
'Cause the place I'm livin' in just doesn't feel like home
[Chorus 2]
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
All they ever do is let me down
G
Every time I let somebody in
C C/B
Then I find out what they're all about
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
Wonder where they're all hidin' out
G
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
C C/B
Gotta get up out of this town
[Post-Chorus 2]
Am7 Dm7
Oh
G C C/B
Lookin' for some real friends
Am7 Dm7
Ahh-ahh
G C C/B
Ahh-ahh
[Bridge]
Am7 Dm7
I just wanna talk about nothin' with somebody that means something
G C C/B
Spell the names of all our dreams and demons for the times that I don't understand
Am7 Dm7
Tell me what's the point of a moon like this when I'm alone again?
G C
Can I run away to somewhere beautiful where nobody knows my name?
[Chorus 3]
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
All they ever do is let me down
G
Every time I let somebody in
C C/B
But I find out what they're all about
Am7
I'm just lookin' for some real friends
Dm7
All they ever do is let me down
G
I'm lookin' for some real friends
C C/B
Gotta get up out of this town, yeah
[Outro]
Am7 Dm7
Oh (ahh-ahh)
G C C/B
Ahh-ahh
Am7 Dm7
Yeah
G C
Ahh-ah
