[Intro]
[C] [Dm7] [Em] [G]
[Verse]
They sent you down a paper [C]friend, I [Dm7]hear[G]
You went back on all your [C]vows you once held [Dm7]dear[Em]
There you stretched so calm and quiet[Dm7]
And things looked good, now don't deny it[Em]
You walked on air for fifteen minutes[Dm7]
And after that, there was nothing in it[G7]
[Chorus]
You don't need those paper [C]friends at [Dm7]all[G]
No, you don't need those kind of [C]friends[Dm7][Em][G]
[Verse]
You say you've lost your sense of [C]time, a[Dm7]gain[G]
Well, you've been using that ex[C]cuse since who knows [Dm7]when[Em]
You went the way of all young rebels[Dm7]
Ignore the gods, embrace the devils[Em]
But they're no good for you in your state[Dm7]
So why not drive them right out of your gates?[G7]
[Chorus]
'Cause you don't need those paper [C]friends at [Dm7]all[G]
You don't need those type of [C]friends[Dm7][Em][G][F7]
[Bridge]
No one knows what you're [Am7]feeling[Dm7]
And life goes on in its [C]own sweet time[F7]
Your passions flame for no [Am7]reason[Dm7]
You haunt the city [Em7]for something that [F]shines
Even[Em] one thing to [Dm7]rhyme[G]
[Verse]
And if I meet you on the [C]rounds to[Dm7]day[G]
I hope you won't turn on your [C]heel or walk a[Dm7]way[Em]
Yes, I know it takes so much effort[Dm7]
But facing up can be so much better[Em]
So what if dreams, they all come to nothing?[Dm7]
Just blow your nose and keep on looking[G7]
[Chorus]
'Cause you don't need those paper [C]friends at [Dm7]all[G]
You don't need those kind[C] of friends[Dm7][G]
You don't need those paper [C]friends[Dm7][G]
You don't need those paper [C]friends[Dm7][G]
