Em D Cadd9
[Verse 1]
G Cadd9 I was there that night in Bethlehem Em D Cadd9 And when Neil and the boys came to the moon in that tin can G D Cadd9 At Gettysburg, Omaha beach, in Vietnam Em D Cadd9 I heard every soldier's cry and every mama's prayer G Cadd9 I was there
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 I was there when you took your first breath Em D Cadd9 And when you lit that stolen Lucky Strike and like to choke to death G When you were waist deep in Carter's Creek Cadd9 Em D Cadd9 D And preacher John dunked you down in the water and raised you up for air G I was there
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D I'm always around, I was then and I am now G G/B Cadd9 And I'll be here when tomorrow comes Em When a road comes to an end D I'm where you start again Cadd9 G/B Cadd9 I'm never farther than a word away D You've always got a friend
[Bridge]
G Cadd9 When your grandma passed, I was in that house Em D Cadd9 D And when your grandpa ran down the streets of gold to show her around G Cadd9 Em Cadd9 D G/B I was there
[Chorus]
Cadd9 D I'm always around, I was then and I am now G G/B Cadd9 And I'll be here when tomorrow comes Em When a road comes to an end D I'm where you start again Cadd9 G/B Cadd9 I'm never farther than a word away D You've always got a friend
[Verse 3]
G Cadd9 I was there last night on highway 9 Em D Cadd9 When you answered the phone and ran right through that stop sign G Cadd9 I was in the cab, of that bigger rig, in that trucker's ear Em D Cadd9 Made him swerve to the right and miss you by a hair G I was there
[Tag]
Em D Cadd9 D If you're feeling alone look up I’m the One who answers prayers Em D Cadd9 And I'm always there
