Beware Your Only Friend Tab

by Bonnie Prince Billy


Intro:   

                   
i want to be your only friend
is that scary?

                        
my active mind don’t wish it so
watch out for these silent thoughts
that’s where the seed of soul-sucking grows

   

                                          
when each who comes around you takes some of your life
                          		  
that’s when i get angry, an outfit for my fright

             
you want to be my daughter
come sit up on me
i hate it but it’s so
i wanted you as my mother
cheering me as i go

   

                                          
when each who comes around you takes some of your life
                          		  
that’s when i get angry, an outfit for my fright


            
picture us lounging
                
just sitting and listening
                  
and loving what we hear
              
that has never happened
        
we both flail too much
   
we flail too much
                 
to let the other near


                  
i want to be your only friend
beware of me
my quiet mind is not fit to lead
take the warning i’ve seen fit to lend
and from the stage we now be free
