Why Can't We Be Friends - The Academic

Intro: F Dm Am Cmaj7
F E7

Verse:
F                  Dm
Donʼt leave me here,
Am                  Cmaj7
Especially not with her.
F                              Dm
Youʼve heard of people getting lost,
Am                 Cmaj7
Here we donʼt even talk.
F              Dm
Donʼt drink my fear,
Am                Cmaj7
When Iʼve had too much.
F                              Dm
Youʼve heard of people getting lost,
Am                     Cmaj7
I wanna see you in the dark.

Pre-chorus:
       F    
And it falls and it breaks,
       Dm
And it turns into something new.

Chorus:
F      Dm
I say, donʼt let me go,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why canʼt we be friends?
F              Dm
And all night, I watch it burn,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why canʼt we be
F        Dm
Frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
F        E7
I need a taxi.

F Dm Am Cmaj7

Verse:
              F             Dm
This world is pointless,
              Am      Cmaj7
If youʼre not here, whoah.
              F             Dm
This world is pointless,
             Am               Cmaj7
If weʼre not self-destructing love.

Pre-chorus:
       F    
And it falls and it breaks,
       Dm                        C E7
And it turns into something new.
       F    
And it falls and it breaks,
       F    
And it turns into something.

Chorus:
F      Dm
I say, donʼt let me go,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why canʼt we be friends?
F                Dm
And all night, I watch it burn,
Am          Cmaj7
And you say why canʼt we be
F         Dm
Frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
F        E7
I need a taxi

And it turns into something new.
       F    
And it falls and it breaks,
       F    
And it turns into something.

F        Dm
I say, donʼt let me go,
Am          Cmaj7

F         Dm
Frieeeends?
    Am              Cmaj7
And talk to me, and tell me how this one goes,
F        Emaj7
I need a taxi.
