[Bb] [Bb] [Eb] [Bb] [Eb]
Verse 1:
[Bb] Here we [Eb]are
[Bb] Two strangers [Eb]standing in the d[Bb]doorway of a [Eb]bar
[Bb] Nervously [Eb]talking about the [Bb]past
Easy to laugh about it [Eb]now
It wasn't so long ago it [Bb]
hurt just to hear your [Eb]name [F]
Chorus:
[Bb] Can old lovers [Eb]ever just be [F]friends?
One drink, it [D7]all comes flooding [Gm]back again
You [Eb]look at me and you [Cm]smile
I think I [F]haven't felt like [Bb]this in a while
And we [Eb]look out at the [F]rain
And we [D7]see how much our [Gm]lives have changed
Our [Eb]future's rearra[Cm]rearranged but [F]somehow just the [Bb]same
Verse 2:
And here we [Eb]are
[Bb] Two strangers [Eb]standing on the [Bb]pavement by a [Eb]car
[Bb] You rest your [Eb]head upon my [Bb]arm
Easy to laugh about it [Eb]now
I watch your cigarette burn [Bb]out
On the pavemen[Eb]pavement [F]
Chorus:
[Bb] Can old lovers [Eb]ever just be [F]friends?
One drink, [D7]go their separate [Gm]ways again
[Eb]You and I won't figh[Cm]fight
I think that [F]maybe it's time I [Bb]said good night
But I'm [Eb]happy that I [F]came
Just to [D7]see your eyes still [Gm]have their flame
Their [Eb]beauty and their [Cm]pain
It [F]feels like yester[Bb]yesterday
Post-Chorus:
That I was yo[Eb]yours
And you were mi[F]mine
And we were l[Eb]living in paradise[Bb]paradise
And you button up your c[Eb]coat
And the bill gets p[F]paid
And we leave be[Eb]behind this life we [F]almost made
Chorus:
[Bb] Can old lovers [Eb]ever just be [F]friends?
One drink and [D7]go their separate [Gm]ways again
You [Eb]look at me and you [Cm]smile
I think I [F]haven't felt like [Bb]this in a while
And we [Eb]look out at the [F]rain
And we [D7]see how much our [Gm]lives have changed
Our [Eb]future's rear[Cm]rearranged but [F]somehow just the [Bb]same
