For An Old Friend

Tom : Em
Em

[Verse]
C D Em
I was away in some distant country
C D Am
When a friend phoned through the news
G D Em
The line was bad and I couldn't hear
C D Em
And the story was confused
C D Em
They say you'd been out drinking
C D Am
And having your usual wild time
G D Em
You were driving home just a little too fast
C D Em C D
You never made it home

[Verse]
Em C D
Then I remembered the times we travelled around
Em C D
How we'd drive on through the night
Am G D
We were passing smokes and telling jokes
Em C D Em
As the road stretched out in the light
C D
We always shared our money
Em C D Am
We were always broke it seemed
G D
But fame was around the corner
Em C D Em C D
And fortune, so we dreamed

[Verse]
Em C D Em
When I'm drinking in some good-time bar
C D
I look around for you
Am G D
It's a habit I've got, 'cause I can't forget
Em C D Em
And I'm wishing it wasn't true
C D Em
Maybe in a corner
C D
Behind a drink or two
Am G D Em
You'd be singing songs, having a good time
C D
Like we used to do
Am G D Em
Let's both get drunk and have a good time
C D
Like we used to do
Em C D
Yeah, like we used to do
