I Never Liked Your Friends Anyway

[Intro] [Soft, airy] [Clean guitar, distant feedback, light ride cymbal] --- [Verse 1] Cigarettes and lemonade Grapefruit in a milk crate Sunlight through the screen door Giant pumpkin in the yard Christmas lights inside a jar I could live here forever --- [Build] [Drums entering] [Growing intensity] You've got the coolest place Old records stacked for days I don't wanna leave I don't wanna leave --- [Chorus] [Big, emotional] [Wide harmonies] I never liked your friends anyway Always talking through the movie Always laughing way too loud I never liked your friends anyway Maybe if they disappeared You'd only look at me now --- [Verse 2] [Calm, intimate] [Close and tender] Rocking chair and cut-grass smell Flowers tangled in my hair Nobody else around Taking pictures on the lawn Trying hard to get along But they always come around --- [Build] [Steady lift] You've got the sweetest face Makes me wanna stay Even when it hurts Even when it hurts --- [Chorus] [Huge chorus] [Layered harmonies] I never liked your friends anyway Always taking up the silence Turning everything around I never liked your friends anyway Maybe if they went away You'd finally hear me now --- [Bridge] [Stripped back] [Gentle, close vocal] [Soft guitar only] Maybe it was never them Maybe I was scared of it Watching everybody fit Into a world I couldn't live in Maybe I just wanted One afternoon alone Just you and me And nowhere else to go --- [Build] [Momentum rising] [Stacking layers] --- [Final Chorus] [Biggest chorus yet] [All voices in] [Maximum lift] I never liked your friends anyway But I would've learned to love them If it meant you'd stick around I never liked your friends anyway Guess they're probably telling you I'm the one who let you down I never liked your friends anyway I never liked your friends anyway --- [Outro] [Fade out] [Lasting reverb] [Ambient tail] I never liked your friends anyway I never liked your friends anyway
