CAPO 4

verse:
   A
Two lonely eyed boys in a pickup truck
           D                    E             A
And they're drivin' through the rain and the heat
          E                                           D
And their skin's so sweaty they both get stuck to the old black vinyl seats
         D
And it's Abbott and Costello and Paul and Silas
        E
It's the two of us together and we're putting on the mileage

Chorus:
       A                          F#m
And we both feel lost but I remember what Susan said
                          Bm
How love is bound in the things we've given up
                 D                    E
More than in the things that we have kept
                        A                                  F#m
And ain't it funny what people say and ain't it funny what people write
                          Bm                      D
And ain't it funny how it hits you so hard in the middle of the night

    E                G                          D
And if your home is just another place where you're a stranger
         F#m             E                   D
And far away is just somewhere you've never been
A                    Bm   D     E             A       D    E
I hope that you'll remember, I ever was your friend

verse:
  A
Two full grown men in a huddle of kids
        D              E              A
And they're trying to help them to believe
        E
What is too good to be real
             D
But is more real than the air they breathe
          D
And it's Wally and the Beaver, David and Jonathan
          E
It's the love of Jesus puttin' on flesh and bone

Chorus:
       A                          F#m
And we both feel lost but I remember what Susan said
                          Bm
How love is bound in the things we've given up
                 D                    E
More than in the things that we have kept
                        A                                  F#m
And ain't it funny what people say and ain't it funny what people write
                          Bm                      D
And ain't it funny how it hits you so hard in the middle of the night
                           A
And I remember what Susan said

  F#m       Bm      D     E

                        A                                  F#m
And ain't it funny what people say and ain't it funny what people write
                          Bm                      D
And ain't it funny how it hits you so hard in the middle of the night
    E                G                          D
And if your home is just another place where you're a stranger
         F#m             E                   D
And far away is just somewhere you've never been
A                    Bm  D       E           F#m
I hope that you'll remember I ever was your friend
Bm                                              E
I hope you'll have the strength to just remember
                A
I'm still your friend.
