A                               G# 
I've always told myself that to hate is bad 
F 
Yet sometimes it's so hard 
A                     G# 
And this smile I wear upon my face often 
F 
Seems like a disguise 
A                 G#             F 
I know I have my opinions, but I never mean to hurt 
A                      G#          F 
And it's funny how the ones I love always seem to suffer the most

And I went and opened my big mouth again 
C     G        C      A 
And I lost my another friend 
  C      G      C     F 
I opened my big mouth again 
C     G        C      A 
And I lost my another friend 
   C           G           C      F 
If people like that are so easily fazed 
     C          G            C          A 
Then maybe they weren't real friends anyway 
C      G              C   D     D

A                G#                  F 
Just because one is a friend doesn't mean you have to agree 
A          G#                F 
In fact, a good argument can often prove to be healthy 
A                    G#                    F 
A friend is there to share the good and to help out with the bad 
A               G#                     F 
And if you know someone that does then you've found yourself a good one
