[Verse]
FYou haven't Cleft your house in
FOver a Cweek
FTonight you're Cthinking of going out
GTo grab a couple drinks
FBut you don't want to Csee them, no
They don't Fknow who you Care.
FThey get a brief glimpse
and Cthen you just shut it down
GYou know you close yourself off.
[Chorus]
Because they Amonly know whats Gwritten in the FmagaCzines
AmThey don't know your Gweaknesses For your Cdreams
AmBut we wanna see you Ghanging Fdowntown Cagain,
AmBaby we want to Gknow where you've Cbeen.
[Verse]
Now you Fwait for someone to Ccall you
Just so Fyou can not pick Cup
You know it seems you've been Fmissing the Cphone calls
GMore than you've been missing us
And I'll Fgive you space
And I can Cmake a promise
When you Ffinally grow up
I'll Cbe long gone
And I was Fhoping, my Cfriend,
You'd come Faround
But I Ccan't just Gstick around and wait forever.
[Chorus]
I Amonly know whats Gwritten in the FmagaCzines
AmI don't know your Gweaknesses I don't Fknow your Cdreams
AmI was kidding Gmyself to think Fwe were still Cfriends
AmAnd maybe we Ghave never Cbeen.
[Bridge]
CWill you really do whatever it takes?
Or are you Gtoo set in your Cways?
CCould you stand up for yourself?F

F C

You haven't left your house in

F C

Over a week

F C

Tonight you're thinking of going out

To grab a couple drinks

F C

But you don't want to see them, no

F C

They don't know who you are.

They get a brief glimpse

and then you just shut it down

You know you close yourself off.

[Chorus]

Am G F C

Because they only know whats written in the magazines

Am G F C

They don't know your weaknesses or your dreams

Am G F C

But we wanna see you hanging downtown again,

Am G C

Baby we want to know where you've been.

[Verse]

F C

Now you wait for someone to call you

F C

Just so you can not pick up

F C

You know it seems you've been missing the phone calls

More than you've been missing us

And I'll give you space

And I can make a promise

When you finally grow up

I'll be long gone

F C

And I was hoping, my friend,

You'd come around

C G

But I can't just stick around and wait forever.

[Chorus]

Am G F C

I only know whats written in the magazines

I don't know your weaknesses I don't know your dreams

Am G F C

I was kidding myself to think we were still friends

Am G C

And maybe we have never been.

[Bridge]

Will you really do whatever it takes?

G C

Or are you too set in your ways?

Could you stand up for yourself?

G C

Come on, say it to my face.

[Chorus]

Am G F C

I don't want to read another magazine

I've seen your weaknesses and dreamed your dreams

I've got some time to kill for you, my friend
