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