FRIEND HOSPITAL
Intro play TAB X 2
Verse 1:
N.C.
We are traveling daily by the hour
N.C.
Moods clouding mountains, ideas like towers
N.C.
Choosing sides, digging in, then changing
Hearts and mind are chafing from all the rearranging (HOLD)
Chorus:
CC GG
So much better that we're not together
GG 
AmAm
Cause I will not lose you
CC/GG
Or be the blues to you
GG
Friend hospital

Wild sadness knew weakness

Wild sadness knew weakness
TAB X 2
Verse 2:
N.C.
I wish the sun would come through the walls
N.C.
And find you wherever when you call
N.C.
Give you the time and the will that you want
When you finally learn you can't always get what you haunt (HOLD)
Chorus:
CC GG
So much better that we're not together

Cause I will not lose you

Or be the blues to you
