[Intro]
[E7] [D#7] [Dmaj7]

[Verse 1] (Ella)
[Em7]                     [A13]
I thought I'd found the man of my dreams
[Dmaj7]         [Bm7]                   [Em7]
Now it seems, this is how the story ends
              [A13]
He's going to turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]                  [F#m7] [Fm7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Verse 2] (Ella)
[Em7]                   [A13]
I thought for once it couldn't go wrong
[Dmaj7]         [Bm7]                    [Em7]
Not for long! I can see the way this ends
              [A13]
He's going to turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]                 [D7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Bridge] (Ella)
[Gmaj7]     [G#dim]
Never    again,
             [Dmaj7]   [Em7]          [Dmaj7]
Through with love,   through with men
                [Am7]      [C7]  [B7]
They play their game without shame
             [Em7]    [A13] [A7+5] [A7]
And who's to blame?

[Verse 3] (Ella)
[Em7]                   [A13]
I thought I'd found a man I could trust
[Dmaj7]        [Bm7]             [F#m7] [Fm7]  [Em7]
What a bust, this is how the story ends
              [A13]
He's going to turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]                 [F#m7] [Fm7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Verse 4] (Louis)
[Em7]                       [A13]
Yes, I thought I knew the wheat from the chaff
[Dmaj7]         [Bm7]                   [Em7]
What a laugh, this is how our story ends
             [A13]
I'll let her turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Verse 5] (Louis)
[Em7]            [A13]
I acted like a kid out of school
[Dmaj7]        [Bm7]                   [Em7]
What a fool, now I see this is the end
             [A13]
I'll let her turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]                 [D7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Bridge] (Louis)
[Gmaj7]        [G#dim]
Oh, why should I care?
           [Dmaj7]   [Em7]    [Dmaj7]
Though she gave    me the air
             [Am7]  [C7]   [B7]
Why should I cry, ever sigh
           [Em7]    [A13] [A7+5] [A7]
And wonder why

[Verse 6] (Louis)
[Em7]                    [A13]
Yes, I should have seen the signal to stop
[Dmaj7]        [Bm7]                   [Em7]
What a flop, this is how the story ends
            [A13]
She's gonna turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]                 [F#m7] [Fm7]
"Can't we be friends?"

[Instrumental]
[Em7] [A13]

[Dmaj7] [F#m7] [Fm7]

[Verse 7]
[Em7] [A13]
[Dmaj7] [Bm7] [Em7] [A13]
[Dmaj7] [D7]

[Bridge] (Ella)
[Gmaj7]        [G#dim]
Why should I care?
          [Dmaj7]   [Em7]    [Dmaj7]
Though he gave    me the air
                 [Am7]  [C7]    [B7]
And why should I cry, ever sigh
           [Em7]    [A13] [A7+5] [A7]
And wonder why

[Verse 8] (Both)
[Em7]                    [A13]
I should have seen the signal to stop
[Dmaj7]        [Bm7]             [F#m7] [Fm7]  [Em7]
What a flop, this is how the story ends
          [A13]
I let him turn me down and say
[Dmaj7]        [C7]           [B7]
Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be,
[Fm7]          [Em7]          [A13]         [Dmaj7]
Can't we be, can't we be, can't we be friends?

[Outro]
[Ddim]  [D9]
Oh, yes
