[Eb] I [Cm]
[Bb] [Eb] [Cm]
[Bb] guess [Eb] we [Cm] can still [Eb] be friends
I guess we [Cm] can talk [Bb] at [Cm] least
But if we [Bb] were seventeen
[Ab] Imagine the [F] things we'd [Eb] do
I know that those days are over
And I'm glad that [Cm] those games [Gm] are won [Cm] And the winter's [Bb] right up into [Ab] the sunset
But it's not [Gm] the [G] same for [Cm] you
And I [Bb] don't wanna play [Ab] those nasty games [Db] that my mom's [Cm] playing
But I [Bb] can't let you go [Db] And I can't see [Bb]
another [Ab] way
And I know [Eb] that she's the [Bb] only one for me
[Bbm] [Ab] And you know [Eb] that if I could [Bb] split in two
[Ab] The other me [Eb] would stay all [Ab] night
The other me [Eb] would hold you [Ab] tight
The other me would be the [Eb] only one for [Cm]
you
[Bb] [Eb] [Cm]
[Bb] [Eb] When I [C] see you [Bb] there [Eb] alone
It [Cm] almost breaks [Bb] my [C] heart
[Gm] But it doesn't break enough
For me to break my whole [F] life apart
[Eb] I guess [Cm] we can [Gm] still be [Eb] friends
And [Cm] we could talk [Bb] all [Cm] night
But I [Gm] have to bite my [Bb] tongue
[Ab] Sometimes words [Gm] don't come out [G] [Cm] right
We're old [Bb] enough to [Ab] know what we can't [Db] pick up
And say out [Cm] loud
To know [Bb] that hearts are not [Db] just cards to play [Bb] when two's a crowd
[Ab] And I know [Eb] that she's the [Bb] only one for me
[Ab] And you know [Bb] that if I could split in two
[Ab] The other me [Eb] would stay all night
[Ab] The other me [Eb] would hold you [Ab] tight
The other me would be the only [Eb] one for [Cm]
you
[Bb] [Eb] [Ab] The other me would [Eb] take you so far [Db]
away from [Ab] here
[Eb] And he'd [Cm] be the [Bb] man with a mission
[Ab] The other [Fm] me might even be better [Gb] than this [Bb] one
[Ab] And I know that [Eb]
she's the only [Bb] one for [C] me
[Bb] And [Ab] you know [Eb] that if I could split [Bb] in two
[Ab] I believe we stay all night
The other me would hold you tight
The other me would be the [Cm] only [B] one for [Eb] you
