If we can't be the same old sweet-hearts
 3*    3    3   -2  2   -2   3*    4
Then we'll just be the same old friends
 4 -5* -5*  -5  -5  -3*   3*
For I want some-one like you 
-3*  -5  -5  5    5   -3* 3
just to tell my troub-les to
3* -3  -3*  4  3*  3   3*  3  -2  -3*
My hap-pi-ness on you, it all de-pends

 3   -2   -2   -1* -1  -1*  3   3* -3* -3*
For I've known you too long to for-get you
 3* 3   3   -2   2   -2   3* -3* 4
And my old dream of love nev-er ends
 4  -5* -5* -5   -5  -3*  3*
Tho' I know you can't be mine
-3* -5   -5   4    4   -3  4
We will meet from time to time
-3*  -3    3* -5*  3*  3*   3    -1*
And we'll just be the same old friends
