             Bm
You know the way
              C#
You've been before
              F#m
I've seen the signs
              D
Outside your door
             Bm
You set the rules
            C#
The bitter days
          F#m    D
Can't be ignored
               Bm
It's just the same
            C#
Just like before
            D
You wanted more

Chorus:
           F#m
I love the sun
           Bm
I love the rain
            C#
You gave it up
            D
But all in vain
           F#m
I love the way
         Bm
It was before
          C#
So bittersweet
        D
To be adored
          Bm
We had it all
           C#
You let it go
           F#m
You wanted more

But in the end
What is a friend
If not someone
To help pretend?
Remember me
You know my name
I'm still the same
But not for you
That's not enough
You wanted more

Chorus

We had it all
You gave it up
You wanted more

But in the end
What is a friend?

Chorus
