I Need All The Friends I Can Get Cifras

Camera Obscura -- I Need All The Friends I Can Get
 
Should be pretty close to the original recording, the F7 chords are the closest I could get by ear -- but it
might be different from the actual chord.
 
[Intro]
 
Bass line (transpose +8va if playing on a bass):
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-3-3-------5-5-------3-3-------5-5-------3-3-------5-5-------3-3-------3-3-|
E|-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----3-5-3-----| (repeat as needed)
 
[Verse 1]
 
C                      F7
I can see that you are leading her on
C                       F7
I think I know what you are
C                      F7
I can see that you are leading her on
C                     F7
Yeah, I know what you are
 
[Chorus]
 
C                         F7
You can't see that you're just the same
           C             F7
As all the stupid people you hate
C                  F7
I'm not saying I'm free from blame
          C                      F7
Because I need all the friends I can get
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
 
  C                       F7
A long distance call to a mystery blonde
   C               F7
It wasn't good for business
        C                           F7
But you say that she cries when she hears the bird's song
    C                     F7
You want to soothe her distress
 
[Chorus]
 
C                         F7
You can't see that you're just the same
           C             F7
As all the stupid people you hate
C                  F7
I'm not saying I'm free from blame
          C                      F7
Because I need all the friends I can get

[Verse 3]
 
C                          F7
Can't you see that you are leading her on
C                   F7
You are feeling listless
C                        F7
The people are tired and commitment has gone
   C                   F7
To this I've been a witness
 
[Chorus]
 
C                      F7
You can't see that I'm just the same
           C             F7
As all the stupid people you hate
C                  F7
I'm not saying I'm free from blame
          C                      F7
Because I need all the friends I can get
