Best Friend

Foster the People

R1: (When your best friend's all strung out)
    You do everything you can 
    'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
    (When you find it all around)
    Yeah, it comes in waves but it's hardest from the start

1. Feelings sleeping in the field again
   I can feel, I can feel, I can feel
   It's beginning to end
   Premonitions smiling in the dark
   I can see, I can see, I can see
   The story's starting to arc
   It dries up

X: I've been a spoken word
   I've been a river bed
   I've been a rabid force
   And let it flow out from within
   Sometimes it feels like I only dream in black and white
   And color's so oh

R2: (When your best friend's all strung out)
    You do everything you can 
    'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
    (When you find it all around)
    Yeah you say it's what you need
    And hide your eyes when you're close to me
    (With your feet up in the clouds)
    Well, it comes to waves but it's hardest from the start

2. Waves in theta sleeping into dreams
   I can feel, I can feel, I can feel
   The celestial beings
   I can see, I can see, I can see
   The beauty in the mess
   It dries up

X: I've been a river bed 
   I tried to salt the wound
   I've carried more than I can
   I feel I've got a lot to prove
   Sometimes it feels like I only dream in black and white
   And color's so oh

R3: (When your best friend's all strung out)
    You do everything you can 
    'Cause you're never gonna let it get 'em down
    (When you find it all around)
    Yeah you say it's what you need
    And hide your eyes when you're close to me
    (With your feet up in the clouds)
      You oughta know that I'm here no matter where you wanna go
    (With your head hanging upside down)
    Well, it comes to waves but it's hardest from the start

*:       I am here, no matter where you are
   I'm waiting here with open arms
   No matter where you are
   Sometimes you have to wait until it passes by
   Like a satellite or star
   No matter where you are

Em  F  G  Am  (2x)
