When you're hanging with a friend you don't see very much
                        C
You know the kind
                                                        G
You see them once every year for coffee or brunch
              D                                                A                            C      G
And you struggle really hard to think of things to talk abo-out     Oooh
              D                                          A
So you talk about the weather, and pretend that you care
                   C                                              G
When she said tried something new with her hair
              D                                              A                                      C    G
So you fake a smile but then the worst thing in the world happened  Oooh
         D                    G7                                            C      G
This awful thing also happens when you're in an Uber
   D                          G7                                             C               G
It's also very common when you're with strangers on an elevator
  E7                                                                                A
So brace yourself because this awful thing is about to occur

*silence*

                       D
It's awkward silence
            D                   D                D   
It's the worst thing in the world
D                                                                            A
When you go to your friend's house and you're hanging with them
C                                                                    G
And you're having lots of fun and then their parents come in
D                                                       A
But suddenly your friend decides to leave the room
        C     G
Oh no
         D                                                A
You small talk with the parents for a minute or two
              C                                              G
But that doesn't last long and you don't know what to do
                 D                                                  A                                                                 C
And you know what's coming next so you pray your friend will come back and save you
G
Mmm
D                                G7                                       C      G
This awful thing also happens when you're in an Uber
