[Intro]

Yeah!

[Verse 1]

My heart ticks in beat with these kids that I grew up with

Living like life's going out of style, and you came to watch us play

Like a "big shot talent," but at the end of the day you know

Whoa, where we come from and where we call home, whoa

[Chorus]

Hey, Chris, you were our only friend

And I know this is belated, but we love you back

[Verse 2]

They'll say it's not worth it, so we'll leave this town in ruin

Living like life's going out of style, and you came to watch us play

Like a "big shot talent", but at the end of the day you know

Woah, those busted lips we take back home

[Chorus]

Hey, Chris, you were our only friend

And I know this is belated, but we love you back

So, hey, Chris, you were our only friend

And I know this is belated, but we love you back

[Bridge]

I know you would be there either way

I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade

(So I'll tell everyone how much this means to me)

I know you would be there either way

(So I'll tell everyone how much this means to me)

I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade

[Chorus]

Hey, Chris, you were our only friend

And I know this is belated, but we love you back, yeah!

Hey, Chris, you were our only friend

And I know this is belated, but we love you back

[Outro]

I know you would be there either way

I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade

I know you would be there either way

(Hey, Chris, you were our only friend)

I'm so glad it seems like these times will never fade

(And I know this is belated, but we love you back!)
