Verse 1:
D              G
Summer was the best
          Bm                G
a life of peace before this mess
       D                   G
Bumble bees and smoke free air
       Bm             A
Living life without a care
 
Chorus:
   D                       G
We promised that we'd have each other's backs
         Bm                     A      Asus4
When the world was in flames we made a pact
   D                          G
Oh how could you just turn on me like that
Bm                        A   Asus4
How could you just let me be attacked
D              G
Oh you were my friend
               Bm          A       Asus4
I thought we'd be together til the end
D              G
Oh you were my friend

I thought you'd stick by me until the end
 
Verse 2:
          D         G
We won the war then lost it all
       Bm                     G
Locked behind these great big towering walls
             D              G
Please don't leave me in my time of need
          Bm              A
Can't you see I'm hanging by a string
 
Verse 3:
           D              G
And as the sun set on the horizon
        Bm               A
And the music filled the air
          D                  G
Under the oak tree we made a promise
    Bm           Asus4
I remember I was there
 
-moment of silence-

Bridge:
            D              G
And we were sitting on the bench
               Bm          A
You said let's run away together
   D                        G
Oh tell me how'd it come to this
         Bm              A
How'd we get so far from brothers
D       G        Bm       A
Friends forever
