We're not
               A    E
No we're not friends nor have we ever been
          B     C#m
We just try to keep those secrets in a lie
             A                E
And if they find out, will it all go wrong
             B                     A E
And heaven knows, no one wants it to

                    C#m
So I could take the back road
                              A           B
But your eyes will lead me straight back home
             A              E
And if you know me like I know you
            B
You should love me, you should know

Chorus:
       E                            F#m
That friends just sleep in another bed
      A             B                E
And friends don't treat me like you do
     C#m                    A              E
Well I know that there's a limit to everything
         A            B            E
But my friends won't love me like you
        A            B            E
No my friends won't love me like you

We're not friends, we could be anything.
If we try to keep those secrets safe.
No one will find out if it all went wrong.
They'll never know what we've been through.

So I could take the back road,
But your eyes'll lead me straight back home.
And if you know me like I know you,
You should love me, you should know.

Chorus:
Friends just sleep in another bed,
And friends don't treat me like you do.
Well I know that there's a limit to everything,
But my friends won't love me like you.
No, my friends won't love me like you.

           A
But then again, if we're not friends
        C#m                   B
Someone else might love you, too
           A
And then again, if we're not friends
            C#m             B
There'd be nothing I could do

Chorus:
Friends should sleep in other beds.
And friends shouldn't kiss me like you do.
And I know that there's a limit to everything.
But my friends won't love me like you.
No, my friends won't love me like you do.
Oh, my friends will never love me like you.
