AThank you for being a friend

D/ATraveled down the road and back again

Your E/Aheart is true, you’re a pal and a confiAdant

AI’m not ashamed to say

D/AI hope it always will stay this way

My E/Ahat is off, won’t you stand up and take a Abow

F#mAnd if you threw a A7/Eparty

InDmaj7vited everyone you C#7knew

Well, F#m/Eyou would A7see

The biggest Bm7gift would be from F#mme

And the Dcard D/C#atD/Btached D/Awould Esay

AIf it’s a car you lack

D/AI’d surely buy you a Cadillac

WhatE/Aever you need any time of the day or Anight

AI’m not ashamed to say

D/AI hope it always will stay this way

My E/Ahat is off, won’t you stand up and take a Abow

F#mAnd when we both get A7/Eolder

With Dmaj7walking canes and hair of C#7gray

F#m/EHave no A7fear

Even Bm7though it’s hardly F#mhere

I will Dstand D/C#real D/Bclose D/Aand Esay

Vox on “die” are on the root of the chord

AA/DAnd A/Ewhen we Em6/Gdie and float aF#mway

Into the Fmaj7night, the milky A/Eway

You’ll hear me Em6/Gcall as we asF#mcend

I’ll say your Fmaj7name, then once aA/Egain
