C             Am
Why you gotta hug me like that
F               G
Every time you see me?
C               Am
Why you always making me laugh
F                      G
Swear you're catching feelings

C            Am
I loved you from the start
F                G
So it breaks my heart

Chorus:
         Dm               G
When you say I'm just a friend to you
        C                    Am
Cause friends don't do the things we do
Dm          G                C  A/C#
Everybody knows you love me too
          Dm               G
Tryna be careful with the words I use
  E/B              Am
I say it cause I'm dying to
    Dm                  G               C G
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

Mmm
When there's other people around
You never wanna kiss me
You tell me it's too late to hang out
Then you say you miss me

And I loved you from the start
So it breaks my heart

Chorus:
When you say I'm just a friend to you
'Cause friends don't do the things we do
Everybody knows you love me too
Tryna be careful with the words I use
I say it 'cause I'm dying to
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

             Am
You-oh-oh-oh-oh
Dm           G
You-oh-oh-oh-oh
C            Am
You-oh-oh-oh-oh
Dm           G
You-oh-oh-oh-oh

Chorus:
You say I'm just a friend to you
Friends don't do the things we do
Everybody knows you love me too
I try to be careful with the words I use
I'll say it 'cause I'm dying to
I'm so much more than just a friend to you

A friend to you
A friend to you
A friend to you
