Fairweather Friend
Capo 2
Am G Em D x2
Am G Em D
Say you see through the folly but you do it for the fame
Am G Em D Am
I'm fighting the jet stream, drinkin' cheap wine on airplanes
G Em DAm
You're in L.A., not Chicago
G Em D G
Key under mat, I walk the dog, order in, home alone

Found your letter on a full moon Sunday night
Some other girl in your spell, casting plans for her life
Pour the vodka, and it dulls sharp knives
Breathe the words; diamonds on rings
Am Em
And you didn't really mean it
Am Em D
So I don't have to believe it
Am Em
If you didn't really mean it
Am Em Am
Then magical thinking gets us by

Sing for the after show, those candy colored lips
But your age is showing, and you gotta work harder for it
It's always easier with freshman
Not as clever, but she'll bring you to life
And you didn't mean to do it
So I don't have to believe it
If you didn't really mean it
Magical thinking gets us by
Em D Am Em x2

~instrumental: same as verse~
There for the folly
But you did it for the fame
And you're fragile as porcelain
Drinkin' cheep wine on airplanes
And did I ever leave Chicago?
I got your message, glad you're doing well
And you didn't mean to do it
So I don't have to believe it
If we didn't really mean it
Magical thinking gets us by
EGD Am EGD AmDm
Gets us by Gets us by
