Friends  Glen Campbell

(recitation, no singing)
Verse 1
[Eb]Friends are [Eb7]never earned[Eb]
They're a [Eb7]gift from the loving Go[Eb]d[Ab]
And they're precious beyond human valuation[Ab7]
[Bb7]But you dare not take [Bb]them for [Ab]granted
[Eb]Or they'll drift away like smoke
And the warmth of their [Cm]caring will vanish
Like the c[Cm7]hill of the endless [Dm]nights[Dm7]
Verse 2
[Bb]Most of my friends are [Bb7]unknowns[Bb]
[Eb]And they probably won't rate an [Eb7]obituary
Unless they live and [Eb]die in small towns[Eb7]
Where nothing much ever [Ab]happens[Fm]
But a few of [Db]my friends are big people
They'd made the [Eb]world ring with la[Eb7]ughter[Cm]
Down to it's gaseous [Fm]burning core[Bb]
T[Eb]hey're famous, [Ab]sensitive, [Eb]talented
And their names are house[Bb]hold words[Eb]
Yet they are no more p[Ebm7]recious in God's eyes [Ab] or in mine[Bb]
Than those wonderful [Eb]nobodys who live and [Eb7]die in small towns
Verse 3
Who is your friend?[Gm] [Cm]
He's someone who [Eb]warms you w[Eb7]ith a nod[Ab]
Or with the uns[Gm]poken word in hard t[Dm]imes
When you're hurting beyond words[Bb]
Who is your [Gm]friend?[Bb]
She's some[Eb]one who holds you to her breast
[Eb7]And sighs softly into your [Ab]hair
When [Eb7]no other medicine can stop the pa[Eb]in
A [Cm]friend is someone who clinks his [Db]glass against yours
Or answers the phone
At [Eb]three in the morning when you're [Cm]lost
And with a few [Fm]words of encouragement [Eb7]and concern
[Bb]Makes you realize you aren't really l[Eb]ost at all[Bb] [Eb]
Outro
Friends [Bb]come in both sexes and in [Ab]all shapes and sizes[Eb]
The most important [Cm]thing they have in common
Is the [Fm]ability to share with you your most [Bb]sky splitting joys
[Eb]Or your deepest, most awesome [Ab]sorrows[Eb] [Ab]
For they are your f[Eb]riends[Ab] [Eb]
