Verse 1:
   A augmentedA     F# minorF#m      D MajorD      E MajorE
And irony is okay, I suppose, culture is to blame
   A augmentedA        F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
You try and mask your pain in the most postmodern way
       A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
You lack substance when you say
      D MajorD        E MajorE
Something like, "Oh, what a shame"
       A augmentedA        F# minorF#m        D MajorD      E MajorE
It's just a self-referential way that stops you having to be human
   A augmentedA        F# minorF#m       D MajorD       E MajorE
I'm assuming you'll balloon when you remove the dirty spoon
       A augmentedA      F# minorF#m      D MajorD      E MajorE
And start consuming like a human, that's what I am assuming


Pre-Chorus:
  A augmentedA     F# minorF#m    D MajorD      E MajorE
I'm sure that you're not just another girl
  A augmentedA     F# minorF#m     D MajorD       E MajorE
I'm sure that you're gonna say that I was sexist
 A augmentedA     F# minorF#m      D MajorD       E MajorE
I feel like you're running out of all the things
A augmentedA   F# minorF#m D MajorD
I liked you for


Chorus:
E MajorE        A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
         D MajorD            E MajorE
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
           A augmentedA               F# minorF#m
Instead of calling me out, you should be pulling me in
   D MajorD         E MajorE
I've just got one more thing to say

A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD E MajorE
A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD E MajorE

Verse 2:
  A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
And why would you believe
       D MajorD          E MajorE
You could control how you're perceived
       A augmentedA          F# minorF#m
When at your best you're intermediately
D MajorD          E MajorE
Versed in your own feelings?
    A augmentedA        F# minorF#m
Keep on putting off conceiving
     D MajorD         E MajorE
It's only you that you're deceiving
     A augmentedA          F# minorF#m          D MajorD
Oh, don't have a child, don't cramp your style, I'll leave it


Chorus:
E MajorE        A augmentedA           F# minorF#m
Why can't we be friends, when we are lovers?
         D MajorD            E MajorE
'Cause it always ends with us hating each other
           A augmentedA               F# minorF#m
Instead of calling me out, you should be pulling me in
   D MajorD         E MajorE
I've just got one more thing to say


Outro:
   A augmentedA         F# minorF#m       D MajorD
I'm just pissed off because you pied me off
      E MajorE          A augmentedA
After your show when you let go of my hand
F# minorF#m        D MajorD          E MajorE
In front of some sket who wanted to bitch

A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD E MajorE
A augmentedA F# minorF#m D MajorD E MajorE
