Keith Whitley – My Old Friend (Guitar)

C                      F                 C
I used to get a lot of pleasure from the bottle

         F         C               G7
Drinking seemed so good to me back then

         C                F              C
When the pressure got too much for me to handle

D7                            G7
I could always turn to my old friend

       C              F                     C
And he always gave me strength and built my courage

            F       C               G7
And made me think I was his closest friend

            C            F
But darlin' you saved me before

              C             F
I reached the bottom of the bottle

    C       F        C          G7     C
And made me see this friendship had to end

                            F                    C
I can't believe that my old friend would turn on me

             F       C               G7
And drive me from my feet down to my knees

     C                F            C
It's attempted murder in the first degree

  F       C            G7                   C
I can't believe my old friend would turn on me

        F                                    C
Darlin' you showed me that my old friend was wrong

         D7                                 G7
Still it hurts me so cause I trusted him so long

        C                   F                    C
I can't believe that my old friend would turn on me

             F       C               G7
And drive me from my feet down to my knees

            C                   F              C
But darlin' your love picked me up and made me see

  F       C            G7                   C
I can't believe my old friend would turn on me

  F       C            G7                   F  C
I can't believe my old friend would turn on me
