I Could Use A Friend chords by Billy Lockett

♫ Verse:
G
Swear I wasn't always like this
Gm7
I could handle anything
Cm7
But, lately, I feel like a stranger
C
Living in my own skin

G
And, the older that I'm getting
Gm7
The less I'm letting out
Cm7
I can feel my heart screaming
C

But I never make a sound

G                              Cm7
And I don't know how much of this I can take

G
If only I
Cm7
Could say what I'm thinking
Cm7                                          G
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
G
And I'm getting tired
Cm7
Of smiling and laughing
Cm7                                         G
With nobody asking how I really am
                                G
Oh, I could use a friend

G
It took a lot for me to call ya
Gm7
But, now I've got you on the phone
Cm7
I don't wanna cut the small talk
C
Just to say, "I feel alone"
G
'Cause I don't wanna be a burden
Gm7
Make it All about me
Cm7
Try to keep it on the surface
C
So you don't see underneath

G                               Cm7
And I don't know how much of this I can take

G
If only I
Cm7
Could say what I'm thinking
Cm7.                                         G
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
G
And I'm getting tired
Cm7
Of smiling and laughing
Cm7.                                         G
With nobody asking how I really am

Cm7
Oh, I could use a friend
                                 Cm7
Much more than I'd admit
Cm7                                                          G
Don't wanna state the obvious, but I've been losing it
Cm7
'Cause, even though I'm scared
Cm7
I wanna let you in
Cm7
But, every time I try, I swear the air is turning thin
Cm7
But I wanna let you in

G
If only I
Cm7
Could say what I'm thinking
Cm7                                                G
Instead, I'm just sinking in silence again
G
And I'm getting tired
Cm7
Of smiling and laughing
Cm7                                       G
With nobody asking how I really am
Cm7
Oh, I could use a friend
Cm7
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Cm7                     G
Oh, I could use a friend
Cm7
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
G
Oh, I could use a friend
