Take this bread, if you need a friend
E E7 A
'Cause I'm alright if you're alright

I ain't got a lot, but all I got, you're welcome to it

'Cause I'm alright if you're alright
[Verse 1]
E B
My neighbour Odetta, came over to see if I was feeling better
E E7 A
Every morning at 8 through the backyard gate
E E7 A E
And of all the pretty things she would bring, there was nothing like that song she sang
A
That could ease my sorry state, she'd sing to me:
E B
Take this bread, if you need a friend
E E7 A
'Cause I'm alright if you're alright
E E7 A
I ain't got a lot, but all I got, you're welcome to it
E E7 A
'Cause I'm alright if you're alright

Sha la na na, sha la la la-la
B A E F# B
Na na na-na, La na-na na
[Chorus]
E B
Whoa! Take this bread, sure thing,
E A
If I got bread you got bread, and everybody in my company has got bread
E A
You look a little hungry, I ain't even that hungry, that's how I look at it
E A
Butter side up, butter side down, Doesn't matter to me, if you got a slice, that's nice.
[Verse 2]
E B
I went for a walk, headlights in the dark
E A
The man was dying in a pick-up truck
E A
He took her from the Walmart parking lot, and killed her by the river
E A
But the cops caught him in the guns.. And I said to him..
[Outro]

Take this bread, if you need a friend
E E7 A
'Cause I'm alright if you're alright

I ain't got a lot, but all I got, you're welcome to it

'Cause I'm alright if you're alright

Take this bread, if you need a friend

'Cause I'm alright if you're alright

I ain't got a lot, but all I got, You're welcome to it
