To All My Friends chords by Joey Cape

meant for the acoustic version of the song on the "Livebirds" album made with Jon Snodgrass.
It's better if you listen to the song to see how it goes.
It's my first tab so please be gentle.

C
Here's a song to all my friends
  F           G
I know they'd like
C
I remember every drunken
F                G
Night at the old dive
C

Driving the ol'wreck
                  F        G
Trying to make it home somehow
C
One more pit stop at our favorite
F        G
Watering hole

C                      Am
The ghost of christmas past
F                 G
Swallowed all our pride
C                Am
We'd open up our story books
    F              G
And water down the eyes
C
Our demons raised their
Am
glasses singing
 F           G
"I propose a toast to all my friends"
C        Am           F
Who's buying the next round...

C
Cup half empty cup half full
F                G
Perspectives and beers
C
They weren't failure
                  F              G
Just the regulars of my favorite year
C
They come and go
Paying their toll
     F       G
From mobiles homes
C
Decaying old unsound minds
    F                 G
The ghost of cristmas failure

        C               Am
Dancing to the click of time
    F          G
The beating of defeat
C              Am
Shaking in his hands
F             G
A lifetime of retreat
C                    Am
And his regrets were ours
F                  G
A time to say good-bye to all my friends
C
I've been waiting so
F       G
long... for you to call
My old friend

Solo (C F G - just like the verses)

C  Am     F           G      C
To all my friends, to all my friends
   Am     F           G      C
To all my friends, to all my friends
