               Em     Bm                Em                 Em7
When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand,
    Am           Dm                    G
and nothing, oh, nothing is going right,
F#m                     Bm          Em        Bm         Em
close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
   Am          Bm                      D
to brighten up even your darkest night.


             G                                       Am
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am,
                                  Dm
I'll come running to see you again.
G                                                        Em
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call
                 Bm              Am  Dm
and I'll be there,     yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dm
You've got a friend.


Bm        Em    Bm               Em       Bm            Em
If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds,
         Am        Dm                      G
and that old north wind should begin to blow,
F#m                 Bm     Em          Bm       Em
keep your head together and call my name out loud.
Am7          Bm                     Dm
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door.


         C         F#m         C
Hey ain't it good to know that you've got a friend when
G                                C                  F#m
people can be so cold.     They'll hurt you and desert you.
              Em                        A
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them.
                  Dm          D
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.


             G                                       Am
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am,
Dm                              Dm
I'll come running to see you again.
G                          G                              Em
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call

and I'll be there, yes I will.
