[Verse 1]
   A
We never know which way the wind will blow,

                                        E
Nor when or where the next turmoil will be.

    D            E                  A
But he's a solid rock when troubles grow,

         E                             A
And he's holding out a saving hand for me.
[Chorus]
            A                    D     A
Fairweather friends, fairweather sai - lors,

                  E                     A
They'll leave you strand - ed on life's shore.

A                         D     A
One good friend who truly loves you

             E                    A
Is worth the pain your heart en - dures.

They'll leave you strand - ed on life's shore.

A                         D     A
One good friend who truly loves you

             E                    A
Is worth the pain your heart en - dures.
[Verse 3]
           A
He'll be a refuge in the storm;

                         E
He'll be a beacon in the night;

       D               E                    A
In the chilly winds of doubt he'll keep you warm;

     E                                     A
When you can't find your way he'll be your light.
[Chorus] x2
            A                    D     A
Fairweather friends, fairweather sai - lors,

                  E                     A
They'll leave you strand - ed on life's shore.

A                         D     A
One good friend who truly loves you

             E                    A
Is worth the pain your heart en - dures.
