Chords

[Verse 1]
 G                           D   Cadd9        G
The first time I saw him he was sweeter than honey

 G                           D             Cadd9      G
Plaid jacket and belt too tight, he wasn't even being funny

          Cadd9                               D
Then he cartwheeled around the room and slow-danced with the cleaning lady

G        G/F#     Em
He was a one man party

    Cadd9                         D                             G     Cadd9 G
You know I'm talkin' about, I'm talkin' about my friend Chris Farley
[Verse 2]
        G              D         Cadd9     G
On a Saturday Night my man would always deliver

  G                                   D          Cadd9            G
Whether he was the Bumblebee Girl or livin' in a van down by the river

             Cadd9                         D
He loved the Bears and Ditka, danced at Chippendale's with Swayze

             G                      G/F#       Em
When they replaced his coffee with Folgers he went full-on crazy

     Cadd9                 D
The sexiest Gap Girl and Meatloaf in the band

    G                     G/F#            Em
Without him there'd be no Lunch Lady in Lunch Lady Land

    Cadd9                          D                           G     Cadd9 G
You know I'm thinkin' about, I'm thinkin' about my boy Chris Farley
[Verse 3]
         G                                       D                    Cadd9         G
After a show he'd drink a quart of Jack Daniels then stick the bottle right up his ass

       G                            D               Cadd9           G
But hungover as hell that Catholic boy always showed up to morning mass

               Cadd9                           D
We'd tell him "Slow down, you'll end up like Belushi and Candy"

          G                 G/F#               Em
He said "Those guys are my heroes, that's all fine and dandy"

  Cadd9                                  D                         G       G/F# Em
I ain't making that stuff up, that's the truth about my boy Chris Farley
[Verse 4]
  Em                                               Am
I saw him in the office crying with his headphones on

                                         Em
Listening to a KC And The Sunshine Band song

                                                  Am
I said "Buddy, how the hell is that makin' you so sad"

                     C                            D    Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
Then he laughed and said "Just thinkin' about my dad"
[Verse 5]
     G                    D            Cadd9            G
The last big hang we had was at Timmy Meadow's wedding party

     G                D          Cadd9      G
We laughed all night long, all because of Farley

      Cadd9                       D
But a few months later the party came to an end

    G           G/F#       Em
We flew out to Madison to bury our friend

 Cadd9                   D
Nothing was harder than sayin' goodbye

  G                      G/F#            Em     Cadd9
Except watching Chris's father have his turn to cry

 D     G
Hmmm Hmmm
[Verse 6]
 G                                   D            Cadd9    G
Hey buddy, life's moved on but you still bring us so much joy

         G                    D               Cadd9  G
Make my kids laugh with your YouTube clips or Tommy Boy

             Cadd9                             D
And when they ask me who's the funniest guy I ever knew

             G          G/F#     Em
I tell 'em hands down without a doubt it's you

        Cadd9                          D
Yeah, I miss hanging out watching you trying to get laid

     G                   G/F#       Em
But most of all I miss watching you toy with Spade

          Cadd9                              D
You're a legend like you wanted but I still wish you were here with me

    G               G/F#          Em        Cadd9
And we were getting on a plane to go shoot Grown Ups 3

 D                    G     G/F#      Em
Yeah, life ain't the same without you boy

    Cadd9                              D                             G G/F# Em
And that's why I'm singin' about, I'm singin' about my friend Chris Faaaaaaaarley

          Cadd9                           D
And if we make enough noise, maybe he'll hear us

N.C.                                   G
Give it up for the great Chris Farley
