Roger McGuinn Friend written by Roger McGuinn
E B7
E F#m
Had a friend the other day he got in over his head
A E
Went out for big money and he wound up lying dead
E F#m
They stabbed him in the back as he was to get his share
A B
And he went out knowing life can be unfair
E A B E
Oh friend why did you try so hard to pretend
A B E
That you could beat your own gut feelings in the end
F#m B E B7
Oh we're gonna miss you round here good old friend
E F#m
He'd always been so careful bout the things he'd done before
A E
Never stepped on anyone he never came in their back door
F#m
But that night he broke one of his own rules
A B
And he went out knowing life can be so cruel
E A B E
Old friend why did you try so hard to pretend
A B E
That you could beat your own gut feelings in the end
F#m B E
Oh we're gonna miss you round here good old friend
