Chris Farley Song

Tom : G
G D Cadd9 G
The first time I saw him he was sweeter than honey
G D Cadd9 G
Plaid jacket and belt too tight, he wasn't even being funny
Cadd9 D
Then he cartwheeled around the room and slow-danced with the cleaning lady
G G/F# Em
He was a one man party
Cadd9 D G Cadd9 G
You know I'm talkin' about, I'm talkin' about my friend Chris Farley

[Verse 2]
G D Cadd9 G
On a Saturday Night my man would always deliver
G D Cadd9 G
Whether he was the Bumblebee Girl or livin' in a van down by the river
Cadd9 D
He loved the Bears and Ditka, danced at Chippendale's with Swayze
G G/F# Em
When they replaced his coffee with Folgers he went full-on crazy
Cadd9 D
The sexiest Gap Girl and Meatloaf in the band
G G/F# Em
Without him there'd be no Lunch Lady in Lunch Lady Land
Cadd9 D G Cadd9 G
You know I'm thinkin' about, I'm thinkin' about my boy Chris Farley

[Verse 3]
G D Cadd9 G
After a show he'd drink a quart of Jack Daniels then stick the bottle right up his ass
G D Cadd9 G
But hungover as hell that Catholic boy always showed up to morning mass
Cadd9 D
We'd tell him "Slow down, you'll end up like Belushi and Candy"
G G/F# Em
He said "Those guys are my heroes, that's all fine and dandy"
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em
I ain't making that stuff up, that's the truth about my boy Chris Farley

[Verse 4]
Em Am
I saw him in the office crying with his headphones on
Em
Listening to a KC And The Sunshine Band song
Am
I said "Buddy, how the hell is that makin' you so sad"
C D Dsus4 D Dsus4 D
Then he laughed and said "Just thinkin' about my dad"

[Verse 5]
G D Cadd9 G
The last big hang we had was at Timmy Meadow's wedding party
G D Cadd9 G
We laughed all night long, all because of Farley
Cadd9 D
But a few months later the party came to an end
G G/F# Em
We flew out to Madison to bury our friend
Cadd9 D
Nothing was harder than sayin' goodbye
G G/F# Em Cadd9
Except watching Chris's father have his turn to cry
D G
Hmmm Hmmm

[Verse 6]
G D Cadd9 G
Hey buddy, life's moved on but you still bring us so much joy
G D Cadd9 G
Make my kids laugh with your YouTube clips or Tommy Boy
Cadd9 D
And when they ask me who's the funniest guy I ever knew
G G/F# Em
I tell 'em hands down without a doubt it's you
Cadd9 D
Yeah, I miss hanging out watching you trying to get laid
G G/F# Em
But most of all I miss watching you toy with Spade
Cadd9 D
You're a legend like you wanted but I still wish you were here with me
G G/F# Em Cadd9
And we were getting on a plane to go shoot Grown Ups 3
D G G/F# Em
Yeah, life ain't the same without you boy
Cadd9 D G G/F# Em
And that's why I'm singin' about, I'm singin' about my friend Chris Faaaaaaaarley
Cadd9 D
And if we make enough noise, maybe he'll hear us
N.C. G
Give it up for the great Chris Farley
