Paul Kelly – Would You Be My Friend (Guitar)

C                        Am
If I fell into confusion

C                           Am
Got scared but couldn't say

C                             Am
If I lost my rhyme and reason

          F                       G
And threw away the gift of grace

                Am              
Would you be my friend?

C                                Am
If they said I don't deserve you

C                            Am
That my credit was no good

C                                       Am
If they told you I'm not worthy of your love

    F                                   G
And you should cut me like you cut dead wood

                Am        G
Would you be my friend?

                C
Would you be my friend?

C                                  Am
And if you heard that I was on the town

C                           Am
Pissing loudly on your name

C                                          Am
Would you find me, would you face me down?

            F                       G
Though your ears burned with shame

                Am      G
Would you be my friend?

                Am       G
Would you be my friend?

                C        Am
Would you be my friend?

C                                     Am
And if I said I wished I'd never been born

C                             Am
And my mouth could only curse

C                                 Am
If I'd passed the point of no return

F                     G
Like a poor, puking child in church

                Am      G
Would you be my friend?

                Am      G
Would you be my friend?

                Am      G
Would you be my friend?

        C          Am
My only friend

C             Am
My only friend... (x4)
