Paul Kelly
Would You be my Friend?
Released: 2001
No capo, standard tuning.

C majorC            A minorAm
If I fell into confusion
C majorC              A minorAm
Got scared but couldn't say
C majorC               A minorAm
If I lost my rhyme and reason
     FF            G+G
And threw away the gift of grace
        A minorAm
Would you be my friend?

C majorC A minorAm

C majorC                A minorAm
If they said I don't deserve you
C majorC              A minorAm
That my credit was no good
C majorC                    A minorAm
If they told you I'm not worthy of your love
  FF                  G+G
And you should cut me like you cut dead wood
        A minorAm    G+G
Would you be my friend?
        C majorC
Would you be my friend?

C majorC A minorAm x2

C majorC                 A minorAm
And if you heard that I was on the town
C majorC              A minorAm
Pissing loudly on your name
C majorC                     A minorAm
Would you find me, would you face me down?
      FF            G+G
Though your ears burned with shame
        A minorAm   G+G
Would you be my friend?
        A minorAm    G+G
Would you be my friend?
        C majorC    A minorAm
Would you be my friend?

C majorC A minorAm

C majorC                   A minorAm
And if I said I wished I'd never been born
C majorC               A minorAm
And my mouth could only curse
C majorC                 A minorAm
If I'd passed the point of no return
FF           G+G
Like a poor, puking child in church
        A minorAm   G+G
Would you be my friend?
        A minorAm   G+G
Would you be my friend?
        A minorAm   G+G
Would you be my friend?
    C majorC     A minorAm
My only friend

C majorC A minorAm

C majorC       A minorAm
My only friend... (x4)
