Tom: C

C                F             C
When I'm unhappy and feeling lonely, 
F            C                   D        G
and this old world of mine comes tumbling down, 
C                      Dm           Am
you are the someone on who I can depend,
F                 C           G       C 
it's nice to know that I have you, my friend. 
C                 F              C
When I get crazy, you understand me,
F         C               D             G
you overlook the things I don't mean to say.
C                         Dm              Am     
You're there beside me whenever things go wrong, 
F          C             G      C 
I'm never lonely knowing you're along. 
C           F             G
You and me, the two of us together,
      Am  Dm  G 
we go on and face the world whatever happens.
F         G               Em    
No matter what gets in our way,
Am        Dm     G            Cmaj7 
we see it through from day to day. 
F          G            Em
Right up until the very end,
Am       Dm   G         C 
it's gonna be me and my friend.
