Friends

        D                          
     A long time ago when we met 
        G
you were lonely

     I helped you forget life was 
 D                        G
solely only a wish to survive

     And blood flows much thicker 
   D
than wine

     Friends who give up their time 
       G
to be near you

                               D   
     Sing you a song just to cheer 
                              G
you, you will be rich in the end

                                D
     Brother now you've got a friend

Continues after the ad
      Bm                           
     Life hurries by in the wink of
          F#m
 an eye almost without meaning

      Bm                        
     Days speeding past like the 
                       F#m
wind hard to grasp no wonder you're 
bleeding

       A                     G
     Friendship is needed today

     Or tomorrow is empty and we 
                    D
need each other please stay

                             G
     For our only hope is together

     We'll live in much calmer 
  D                                
weather, and we'll make a beautiful
   G
 blend

                                D
     Brother now you've got a friend

     Friends who give up their time 
       G
to be near you

     Sing you their songs just to 
  D                                
cheer you, you will be rich in the 
 G
end

                                D
     Brother now you've got a friend
