Belle & Sebastian - Best friend

^GHere we are just trying to be flatmates ^EmHere we are just trying to sophisticate ^DBe an adult, trying not to fall in love ^ABe a human, trying not to stand out

^GHere we are just trying to be neighbours ^EmYou in bed, me still with the painters ^DSmoking out the window, at the magpies ^ATrying to work out what's the truth and what's the lie ^G

^DI'm not saying that we will be best friends ^ABut I took you dancing at the weekend ^GTell your folks in bed you had to play ^GmI tried to make you feel like the kids are playing pretend

^DI'm not saying that we can't be running mates ^AYou run too fast for me, I try to keep the pace ^GWhat I lack in speed I make up for in the way I m^Gmove my hips And the way the sun comes out when I move my lips ^D

^AmSo you won't want to miss ^EmAll the shapes that can make It's a c^Gmhoice you want to take

^AHere we are just trying to be ^GOh, here we are just trying not to ^DFall in love ^F#It's only human not to want to be alone

^GHere we are just trying to be Oh, he^Gmre we are just trying not to ^DGet too close

^DCome around to me, I'll be your lock and fold ^ATell me all your dirt, I'll never tell a soul ^GTell me over steaming mac n cheese Hold the tray ^Gmupon your knees, we can listen to the radio

^DI'm not saying I will cook you dinner ^AStick with me and you'll only end up thinner ^GThere are other ways to fill you up I can lo^Gmok into your soul, I can feed you all the love

^DI’ve been saving up ^AmOh, and don't get me wrong ^EmI'm digging my way in ^GmI just like the game we’re playing

^AHere we are just trying to be ^GOh, here we are just trying not to ^DFall in love ^F#It's only human not to want to be alone

^GHere we are just trying to be ^GmOh, here we are just trying not to ^DGet too close

^DI’m not saying that we can’t be dreamers ^AHere we are just trying to be neighbours ^GWe can lie awake and watch the sky Forget the tr^Gmuth, forget the lie for the moment you’re my best friend
