[Verse]
C Am
And now I have to say "Goodbye" to the best friend I've ever known
D7 C D G
The years have slowly passed him by, now God has called him home
C Am
The times we shared together as we laughed and sang and played
D7 C D G
Just remember, my old friend, you're just a thought away
[Verse]
C Am
When I think back to how we met - so many years ago
D7 C D G
And all the good times that we had - and how the beer did flow
C Am
Telling stories at the bar of Ireland far away
D D7 C D7 G
Just remember, my old friend, you're just a thought away
[Chorus]
C Am
You're just a thought away from me - you're just a thought away
D7 C D G
And I just thought I'd like to say - you're just a thought away
[Verse]
C Am
I see you struggle now my friend, both tired and so afraid
D D7 C D G
I wish that I could ease your pain and make it all go away
C Am
You've been a special friend to me, and I can only say
D D7 C D7 G
Just remember, my old friend, you're just a thought away
[Chorus]
C Am
You're just a thought away from me - you're just a thought away
D7 C D G
And I just thought I'd like to say - you're just a thought away
