Good Friend Of Mine

C G C

C                Em             Am
Well I heard the world you have travelled
F         Dm         G
News came out on the grapevine
C                    Em         Am
So, I hope you don’t seem to be simple, no
F                 G              C
’cause you were a good friend of mine

C            Em              Am
We were just friends back in schooldays
F             Dm                G
We shared cigarettes, girls and wine
C       Em          Am
You got lucky; came into some money
F          G              C
You were a good friend of mine

C                Em                Am
You know, I left school and earned money
F          Dm             G
Times were tight but I survived
C             Em           Am
But you could afford to be educated
F          G              C
You were a good friend of mine

C                       Em            Am
Said I’ve worked like a slave till my dad died
F                Dm          G
Well, mother and me, we went crying
C          Em         Am
Still paid out to the chaplain, oh Lord
F          G              C
You were a good friend of mine

C             Em    Am
Meet Mary, my wife, and the kids here
F       Dm                        G
All our food it came off the breadline
C                        Em            Am
I guess you’re what they call the ‘gay bachelor’, yeah
F                  G              C
And you’re still a good friend of mine

C             Em                Am
Now, you hear me, we will get together
F           Dm    G
We’re gonna go to your place or mine
C                 Em         Am
We don’t need too much to be happy, oh no
F                       G              C
And of course, you’re a good friend of mine

C                Em      Am
I said we’re healthy, my my my
F              G              C
You’re still a good friend of mine
