[Verse 1] spoken
D
You know we've been close friends a long time now
G
And I just needed somebody to talk to
D
I hate to bring this subject up
 
Because I know how you've been hurt
G
By someone you really loved
D
And your whole world just crumbled apart
G
But I thought it might help me to know what it's like
E D
When it happens so I came to you
A
Cause I can feel it comin' on
 
[Chorus]
D G
Tell me what it's like to lose the only thing you care about
A D
Tell me how it feels to know your only dream is gone
D7 G
Tell me how you live when you've lost something you can't live without
D A
Tell me what it's like (tell me what it's like)
D
I can feel it comin' on
G D
Tell me what it's like to wake up crying every morning
A D
With an aching heart that just won't set you free
G F#7 Bm
Tell me what you do when there's no one that you wanna do it with
E7 A E A
There's nobody else you really wanna see
 
[Chorus]
D G
Tell me what it's like when those four lonely walls start closin' in
A D A
Tell me how it feels to spend the nights alone
D D7 G
Tell me what to say whenever someone ask you how you've been

Tell me what it's like (tell me what's it's like)
Bm

E D A G A D
Tell me what it's like I can feel it comin' on
