My Old Friend

C                      F         
I used to get a lot of pleasure 
        C
from the bottle
         F         C               
Drinking seemed so good to me back 
G7
then
         C                F       
When the pressure got too much for
       C
 me to handle
D7                            G7
I could always turn to my old friend

       C              F           
And he always gave me strength and
          C
 built my courage
            F       C             
And made me think I was his 
  G7
closest friend
            C            F
But darlin' you saved me before

              C             F
I reached the bottom of the bottle
    C       F        C          
And made me see this friendship 
G7     C
had to end

[Chorus]
                            F      
I can't believe that my old friend 
              C
would turn on me
             F       C            
And drive me from my feet down to 
   G7
my knees
     C                F            
It's attempted murder in the first 
C
degree
  F       C            G7        
I can't believe my old friend 
           C
would turn on me

        F                        
Darlin' you showed me that my old 
            C
friend was wrong
         D7                        
Still it hurts me so cause I 
         G7
trusted him so long

        C                   F     
I can't believe that my old friend
               C
 would turn on me
             F       C            
And drive me from my feet down to 
   G7
my knees
            C                   F 
But darlin' your love picked me up
             C
 and made me see
  F       C            G7        
I can't believe my old friend 
           C
would turn on me
  F       C            G7        
I can't believe my old friend 
           F  C
would turn on me
