Melanie Safka - Friends And Company INTRO: G C D G Em C D G (2x)
         C              D        G
Too much singing for my living tonight

     Em       C           D        D7
To a song for friends and company

G               C               D         G
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite

       Em          C              D         G
Here's one for the giving and the other for free

               C         D       G
The straw that broke the camel's back

    Em     C      D           D7
Has blown upon my windowsill

  G               C      D               G
I may look beaten, but I don't look back

         Em       C          D       G
When you break my heart, you feed my will
BRIDGE:
            Em          G
This should be an instrumental

                          D
But it seems I've made up words

            Em            C              Em
Though they have a way of getting in the way

       D           Em
What a way to be absurd

       D            Em      G
It's a way of being heard

INTERLUDE:    C  D    Em          D  
           Ba da, ooh la la laa

    G           C               D         G
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite

        Em         C              D         G
Here's one for the giving and the other for free

         Em               G
Too much time for resting easy

                        D      
Not enough to sleep all night

        Em                       C              
And the shooting star I take for dreaming

         D                  Em
Wakes me down, the doctor's right

       D           Em
Is the doctor ever right?
INTERLUDE:
      G             Em  D
Oh oh laa, oh-oh oh-laa

      G              Em D Em C D
Oh-oh oooh, oh oh oh oh

   G   C          D           G           C
Oh god, I need to swallow you whole again

        D            G           C
I gotta mend the old soul again

      D           C      D
All I need is some inner peace

   G   C          D           G           C
Oh god, I need to swallow you whole again

           D            G           C
I've gotta mend the old soul again

      F            C     D
All I need is some inner peace

    G     C       D  Em   D
Oh, inner peace

G     Em      C     D    G
Oh-oh ooh, oh oh oh oh

         C      D      G
Give the soul a way to fly

Em         C       D       D7
Soothe the eyes of memory

      G       C          D        G          
Let's give it all for an answer why

       Em        C           D           G
If you reach the heaven, the spirit's on me

                 C              D        G
There's too much singing for my living tonight

     Em       C           D
To a song for friends and company

    G           C               D         G          
Too much is the matter with the giving on spite

       Em          C              D         G
Here's one for the giving and the other for free
