When you’re hangin’ with a friend

A

that you don’t see very much

             C

You know the kind - you see them once a year

    G

for coffee or brunch

        D                               

And you struggle really hard to think of

A             C        G

things to talk about

       D

So you talk about the weather 

    A
and pretend that you care

         C

When she says she tried something 

G
new with her hair

       D

So you fake a smile and then the worst 

A                  C        G

thing in the world happens

D                     G7

This awful thing also happens 

                  C  G

when you’re in an Uber

D

It’s also very common when you’re

G7                   C      G

with strangers in an elevator

E7

So brace yourself

                                    A
‘cause this awful thing is about to occur

             D          

It’s awkward silence.

         D
It’s the worst thing in the world.

         D

When you go to your friend’s house

           A
and you’re hangin’ with them

             C

And you’re havin’ lots of fun

               G

and then their parents come in

D                           A

But suddenly your friend decides

             C     G

to leave the room

    D 

You small talk with their parents

      A
for a minute or two

         C

But that doesn’t last long

              G
and you don’t know what to do

        D

And you know what’s comin’ next

       A

so you pray your friend will

              C        G
come back and save you

D                     A

This awful thing also happens

                  C    G

when you’re in an Uber

D

It’s also very common when you’re

A                    C      G

with strangers in an elevator

E7

So brace yourself ‘cause this

                        A

awful thing is about to occur

D                    D D D

C           Cm                  D

G7sus4

I would rather use my nails on chalkboard

G7

instead of chalk

C           Cm                  D

Anything is better than awkward silence

G7sus4

I would rather have the ‘rhea

   G7

or watch my parents hump

G7sus4
