G                                               C 
I tried to tell you why you should listen to my song 
G                                                             C 
You told me that you heard me and that you'd learn to use the phone 
D                        C 
I told that I was really scared, I may not last 
D                          C 
I said I was desperate and emergency was comin' fast 
 
G                                 C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one 
G                                 C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one 
G                                 C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one 
G                                 C

N/C                     G 
I thought you were my friend 
 
G  C 
 
G                                                     C 
I waited for the blood you promised me that you would let 
G                                          C 
In my soul I prayed that you would never forget 
D                        C 
You said to sign my life away to your command 
D                            C 
And now I can't describe how little I understand 
 
G                                 C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one 
G                                 C

G                                 C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one 
G                                 C             D   C 
Do you really wanna let me be the desperate one

I thought you were my friend
