[A] [E] [F] [C] [F] [C] [E] [A]
(Verse)
[(A)]Simple and [Em]small,
almost [F]alone.
Curled [C]up in a ball[F]
with a [C]tin [E]can [A]phone
tied to a [Em]twist
leading out[F]side
and [C]into the [F]mist
where the [C]sha[E]dows [A]hide.
[C#7]Maybe when you'r[F#m]e gone
we'l[D]l gladly take you[A]r place.
[C#7]You're so nicel[F#m]y drawn.
We [D]like your face and
[A]we want to [C#m]be your [F#m]imaginary [F7]friend,
want to [Bm]be your [Dm]imagi[F]nary [Dm]friend.[A]
When you were [Em]young
you knew us [F]well.
The [C]cat had your [F]tongue,
so you [C]could [E]not [A]yell
when you were [Em]cross.
All you could [F]do
was [C]call it a [F]loss,
though this [C]was [E]not [A]true.
[C#7]We've since dis[F#m]appeared.
[Fm]That is, until [C]tonight
[G]when you turn [Dm]out the light
and [E]everything stands [A]still.
[F]The wind's [C]direction shifts
[G]and makes the [Dm]curtains lift?
and you [E]see us on the [A]sill.

(Verse)
[A]Every word [C#7]that you've learned,
[F#m]Every wish that you've burned,
[D]Every single [A]strand of hair [C#7]in your head,
[F#7]Every book that you've read:
We [D]love you this much[A].
We want to [C#m]be your [F#m]imaginary [F7]friend,
Bm Bhlfdim7
want to be your imaginary?
