Carl Perkins – My Old Friend (Guitar)

       A                            C#m
On the Isle of Montserrat, though I never shall forget

       Bm                          E
Just a country boy, a guitar and a song

      A                    C#m
You invited me in, and you treated me like kin

           Bm                      E
And you've given me a reason to go on

A  C#m   F#m   F#m7  D            A         E   E7
My old   friend,     Thanks for inviting me in

A  C#m   F#m   F#m7           D       Bm    Bm7      E
My old   friend,     May this goodbye never mean the end

      A                             A7         D
If we never meet again this side of life, in a little while, over yonder,

          B7
Where it's  peace and quiet

A  C#m    F#m    F#m7          D              E             A
My old    friend,    Won't you think about me every now and then

     A                           C#m
If I told you how I feel, oh, it wouldn't sound so real

       Bm                                  E
'Cause emotions, they are just now settin' in

       A                               C#m
But it sure is great to know, that wherever we may go

       Bm                    E
We can always be the best of friends

A  C#m   F#m   F#m7  D            A         E   E7
My old   friend,     Thanks for inviting me in

A  C#m   F#m   F#m7           D       Bm    Bm7      E
My old   friend,     May this goodbye never mean the end

      A                             A7         D
If we never meet again this side of life, in a little while, over yonder,

          B7
Where it's  peace and quiet

A  C#m    F#m    F#m7          D              E             A
My old    friend,    Won't you think about me every now and then

         D
And I'll think about you,

E       A
My  old friend

D       E      A
Yeah... My old friend
