F Dm Bb C 2x

[Verse 1]
  F
Today you're their best friend
Dm
But believe me tomorrow
Bb                        C
They don't even know your name
F                             Dm
Friendship is a word that has lost its meaning
    Bb                     C
And making friends a funny game

[Chorus]
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
     F               Dm
It's always been the same
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
              F   Dm Bb C
Hello and goodbye

[Verse 2]

     F
They came without warning
           Dm
They won't leave when you want it
    Bb                      C
You wish you could beam 'em away
             F
But when you really need them
          Dm
They will never appear
           Bb                       C
And if you ask them they will never stay

[Chorus]
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
     F               Dm
It's always been the same
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
              F   Dm Bb C
Hello and goodbye
              F   Dm Bb
Hello and goodbye

[Bridge]
C                    F
It's always been the same
Dm                   C
It's always been the same

[Verse 3]
      F
I can see by your eyes
                    Dm
You thought they'll never go
    Bb                            C
But tell me please where are they now
F                       Dm
Remember me boy 'cause I told you so
    Bb                                C
But believe me you'll get through somehow

[Chorus]
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
     F               Dm
It's always been the same
        Bb           C
Tell me why, tell me why
              F   Dm Bb C
Hello and goodbye
              F   Dm Bb              C
Hello and goodbye    Yeah he yeah he yeah
              F  F  F
Hello and goodbye
