A  E/G#           F#m7    G  E7sus4  E
         Oh, tell me why.

[Verse 1]
A            E/G#                   F#m7
We do almost everything that lovers do
    Bm7                          Bm7/E
And that's why it's hard, just to be friends with you
A               E/G#                   F#m7
Every time your heart is broken by the fool
  G                        F#m7
I want you to know that it hurts me too
Bm7                                F#m7
It's hard to wipe your tears away (tears away)
Bm7                             Bm7/E
Knowing that you should be with me
N.C
Now tell me why


[Chorus]
A    E/G#             F#m7
Why? why are we still friends
                Bm7
When everything says
             E7sus4        E
We should be more than we are
            A   E/G#         F#m7
And tell me why every time I find
               Dm6
Someone that I like
          E7sus4      E     A
We always end up just being friends (Just Being Friends)


[Verse 2]
A            E/G#                     F#m7
I would hate for you to find somebody new
    Bm7                             Bm7/E
Who you really love, cause it would mean losing you
A          E/G#             F#m7
But am I a fool girl not to say
   G                      F#m7
If I'm always scared I'll lose you anyway
Bm7                    F#m7
Somehow somewhere I've got to choose (got to choose)
Bm7                      Bm7/E
No matter if it's win or lose
N.C
Now tell me -


[Chorus]
A    E/G#             F#m7
Why? why are we still friends
                Bm7
When everything says
             E7sus4        E
We should be more than we are
            A   E/G#         F#m7
And tell me why every time I find
               Dm6
Someone that I like
          E7sus4
We always end up just being friends


[Bridge]
Bm7
I don't want to be like your brother
A/C#
I don't want to be your best friend
D
I only want to be your lover
Dm6
When will this end?
          F#m7               B7
If I told you that I want to be in your life?
     Bm7                       Bm7/E
Then you could be the woman in mine
N.C
Now tell me -

[Chorus]
A    E/G#             F#m7
Why? why are we still friends
                Bm7
When everything says (everything says)
             E7sus4        E
We should be more than we are
            A   E/G#         F#m7
And tell me why every time I find (I find)
               Dm6
Someone that I like
          E7sus4      E
We always end up just being friends (So tell me -)

A    E/G#             F#m7
Why? why are we still friends (are we still friends)
                Bm7
When everything says
             E7sus4        E
We should be more than we are
            A   E/G#         F#m7
And tell me why every time I find
               Dm6
Someone that I like
          E7sus4      E
We always end up just being...

[Outro]
A        E/G#           F#m7
friends. Why, why, why. Oh, why.
                   Bm7     E7sus4     F#
Why, why, why. Oh, why are we just... Friends.
