FRIEND HOSPITAL
 
 
Intro play TAB X 2
 
[Verse 1]
N.C.
We are traveling daily by the hour
N.C.
Moods clouding mountains, ideas like towers
N.C.
Choosing sides, digging in, then changing
Hearts and mind are chafing from all the rearranging (HOLD)
 
[Chorus]
C                                 G
So much better that we're not together
            G           Am
Cause I will not lose you
                   C/G
Or be the blues to you
             G
Friend hospital
 G    Am       C/G
Wild sadness knew weakness
 G    Am       C/G
Wild sadness knew weakness
 
 
TAB X 2
 
[Verse 2]
N.C.
I wish the sun would come through the walls
N.C.
And find you wherever when you call
N.C.
Give you the time and the will that you want
When you finally learn you can't always get what you haunt (HOLD)
 
[Chorus]
C                                  G
So much better that we're not together
            G           Am
Cause I will not lose you
                   C/G
Or be the blues to you
                   G
Friend hospital
G     Am     C/G
Wild sadness knew weakness
G      Am     C/G
Wild sadness knew weakness

[BRIDGE]
Am    C/G  C/G*            Am
Awkward li-mo, fantastic cemetery
                           C/G     C/G*
Reading from a list of your greatest hits
                             Am
You're dropping them all the time
Am                                 C/G
It's like landing on my favorite planet
             C5/G     Cmaj9/E      Am
When you're crackling through the line
                C/G
So glad you called
                Am
Sharp advice saves my life
 
[Chorus]
C                             G
So much better that we're not together
            G           Am
Cause I will not lose you
                   C/G
Or be the blues to you
                   G
Friend hospital
 G    Am       C/G
Wild sadness knew weakness

Wild sadness knew weakness
