Intro: Bb Verse 1: Bb Gm I built a friend with three pieces of plastic and a pen, Eb I made him on the table in the den, Bb I gave him my old cellphone for a head, F For a head. Bb And we spent holidays in my house, Gm And we left presents in the stocking, Eb Bb And we bought bolts and things and strings and a new watch, F That's what he got. Chorus: Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F We knew we'd be friends forever. Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F we had so much fun. Verse 2: Bb Then I left for college in September Gm And we wept cause we can't be together Eb Bb So I kept pictures to remember my old friend, F My old friend. Bb Then I met this girl at graduation Gm And forget my oldest creation Eb And I guess I'll see him next vacation Bb F Send my best, I send my best Chorus: Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F We knew we'd be friends forever. Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F we had so much fun. Verse 3: Bb Gm I came home to find him on the table with a note Eb Scribbled out in pencil and he wrote Bb That he just wasn't stable all alone, F All alone. Bb Gm Next to him, an empty glass of water that he spilled Eb All over the body that I built, Bb It fizzled and it popped and then it killed, F And then it killed. Chorus: Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F We thought we'd be friends forever. Eb And we had so much fun together, Bb F we had so much fun. Bb I built a friend.
