G                  D7
If you're hurting, well I am too
                                          G
And if you're wondering what you're gonna do
                        C
Move over, have another beer
             G7      D                      G
You won't be lonesome 'cause your friend is here


                                   D7
I've been thinking, but what's the use
                                      G
'Cause the songs we're singing hold a lot more truth
                    C
Joking, cussing and swapping lies
      G7              D                   G
If it helps your head, well it sure helps mine


                               D7
Sometimes the laughing hides a broken heart
                                    G
Sometimes the singing shuts out the dark
                        C
But if none of that can ease your mind
  G7             D                     G
A friend you can count on, works every time


                               D7
 You can go to the country and try to be free
                           G
 You can go to the city or sail out to sea
                    C
 But any place will let you down
      G7             D                     G
 If a friend you can count on, just ain't around
