Friend

Bm            G
Darkness like midnight
Bm                Em
Moonless, there's no light
 Em            C     Bm F#
Another lonely day is ending
Bm           G
Searching forever
Bm          Em
Waiting but never
G           G    G       F#m
Finding the only thing I dream of
    Bm          F#m
The warmth of a smile
     G           D
That stays for a while
    G         D               
The face of a friend that won't 
  A
leave


[Verse 1]
D C#m Bm A

D                 C#m            
 I heard a song once, it posed 
            Bm
this point of view
                   A               
That wishes made on stars are 
     D
likely to come true
                   C#m         
So here's my secret, at bedtime 
        Bm
every night
                            A      
I searched the sky and hoped to 
                      G
find a star who'd send a light


[Pre-Chorus]
F#m
To me
    G           F#m
The one thing I need
     A#                   Am
Just one kind soul with a heart of 
gold
       Gm                      
And my dreams became real and I 
                   A
finally feel not alone
A       N.C.
Do hugs always make you feel this 
warm?


Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
D            F#m
 My wish came true
             G
The day that you appeared
    A
And called me friend
D          F#m
 An answered prayer
            Bm        F#m       
A chance to share the world, to 
Bm   F#m
be a girl
    E             A
Who finally felt alive


[Verse 2]
D C#m Bm A

D             C#m
 I'm so excited, we'll do so many 
friendship things
Bm                             
Paint our nails, try on clothes, 
                  A
talk about cute boys
                    D
Attached, but not by strings
                          C#m
And when you've got problems
                            Bm
Whoa, then I've got problems too
                       A
You'll never face this world alone
                         G
I'll be right here, it's you


[Pre-Chorus]
F#m
And me
   G                           
Protectors of each other's what 
       F#m
we'll be
    A#                      Am
You saw my soul through the nuts and
 bolts
           Gm                 
You're the friend I can trust, 
                                A
helped me see I'm not just a machine
A      N.C.
And is this what "all the feels" 
means?

       Em                     F#m 
I been combat-ready since the day 
    G
Dad made me
Em                   F#m       Bm
  Now I'll fight for something more
Bm            F#m         
  Might sound wholesome, but 
   G
strangely
A#                     A
  I've got friends I'm fighting for
      G     F#m
But I found that
  Em                        G     
Humanity, it came with sacrifice, 
  F#m
a pact
   Em
To shield you from the wicked
     G    F#m   F         G
Even if I can't live for real
       A
It was worth it to know you


[Chorus]
D            F#m
 My wish came true
             G
The day that you appeared
    A
And called me friend
D          F#m
 An answered prayer
            Bm        F#m       
A chance to share the world, to 
Bm   F#m
be a girl
    E             A
Who finally felt alive
