Intro: Bm G D A

Verse 1:
Bm                   G                  D 
 All I ever wanted was to write a song
                          A
and to hear the world around me start to sing along.
Bm                  G                  D 
 But now I wonder what a song can do
                       A
If you don't have a friend to sing along with you

Pre Chorus:
G                  D                                     Asus4
You've known each other forever so don't go and throw it away

Just say

Chorus:
G             D                     A
I'll be your friend when you need one

and we'll run this race till we've both won
G             D                     A
 I'll be right there by your side till the end

I'll always be your friend
Bm     G                D 
 So don't let the song end
       A
I'll always be your friend

Verse 2:
Bm                        G
 She heard all your stories
                        D 
She knows all your rhymes
                              A
and a friend like that don't come around you all the time
Bm                        G
 So don't keep your secrets
                      D 
and don't tell no lies
                      A
Just be yourself and she will be there by your side

Pre Chorus:
G                  D                                     Asus4
You've known each other forever so don't go and throw it away

Just say

Chorus:
G             D                     A
I'll be your friend when you need one

and we'll run this race till we've both won
G               D                           A
 I'll be right there by your side till the end

I'll always be your friend


Bm     G                D 
 So don't let the song end
       A
I'll always be your friend

Outro:
G                     D 
 Summer days and the sunshine
A
 This is where we belong
G                     D 
 All I need is a friend like you to
A
Help me sing out -a song-
                     D
I'll always be your friend
