Guitar chords with lyrics

Intro:
C5 F5 E5 C#5     x4


Verse 1:
D5         E5  F5            E5    C5
Once I had a friend that I could count on
      G5             C5    D5
So I thought, well, so it seemed
D5        E5  F5          E5  C5
But times of need are not enough
              G5         C5    D5
To prove your friendship to me now
D5        E5  F5          E5  C5
Once I saw a face that I believed in
       G5          C5    D5
But a mask was all there was
D5            E5  F5           E5         C5
So who wears the masks and who wears the faces?
        G5         C5      A5
Well, I guess I'll never know

Pre-Chorus 1:
A5
But as I stand here alone in a room full of people
A5
With nothing to say
A5
Beer on their minds and smoke in the air
A5                                A#5
Call them friends, but they just don't care


Chorus 1:
F5         C5
Friend for life
D5                     A5     A#5
Such shallow words for broken minds
F5        C5         D5
Show me a friend for life
F5              C5               D5
Because I'll be waiting for that day to arrive
A5   A#5
When I'll feel alive
F5      C5               D5
I'll be waiting for that day


Verse 2:
D5           E5 F5        E5 C5
Once I found a love I had to know
             G5                   C5  D5
Now we might know each other just too well
D5                  E5  F5           E5        C5
Because when we're together we just can't get enough
   G5                           C5  D5
Or is it we just can't get what we want?
D5         E5 F5          E5 C5
Once I saw a dream, I had to chase it
        G5             C5  D5
Dreams quickly turn to reality
 D5                 E5 F5             E5 C5
Who's at fault in this game of yours and mine?
        G5         C5      A5
Well, I guess I'll never know


Pre-Chorus 2:
A5                G5 A5
But as I sit here alone
A5                                    G5 A5
Think of the girl who came softly inside me
A5                                    G5 A5
The look in her eyes, the smell of her hair
A5                                 A#5
Call her my own, but is she really there?


Chorus 2:
F5         C5
Love for life
D5                     A5     A#5
Such noble words for noble minds
F5         C5      D5
Show me a love for life
F5         C5                     D5
Because I'll be waiting for that day to arrive
      A5  A#5
When I'll feel alive
F5      C5               D5 C5 A5 G5 E5 F5
I'll be waiting for that day

Now let me close my eyes
E5 C5           G5          C5       D5
Because I don't want to see anything anymore
