Intro:
4/4 time.  "/" equals quarter note.  "|" equals measure

D2 / G D | Em / / / | A7 / / / | D2 / / /  | D2 / / /

Verse 1
D                   G        D
Always thought you were the best,
   G       A      D
I guess I always will
D                G        D
Always felt that we were blessed,
     Em              A
And I feel that way still
    Bm                F#m
Sometimes we took the hard road
        G             Em A
But we always saw it through

Chorus
    D                G      D
If I'd had only one friend left
     G       A     D
I'd want it to be you

Verse 2

D                       G      D
Sometimes the world was on our side,
    G         A      D
sometimes it wasn't fair
    D               G       D
sometimes it gave a helping hand
    Em               A
sometimes we didn't care
       Bm            F#m
'cause when we were together
   G                   Em A
it made the dream come true
   D            G          D
If I'd had only one friend left
    G       A      D
I'd want it to be you
    Bm            F#m
Someone who understands me
    G         A     D
and knows me inside out
     Bm             F#m
and helps keep me together
    G            A     D
and believes without a doubt
    Bm             F#m
but I could move a mountain
    G              Em
someone to tell it to

   D                 G     D
If I'd had only one friend left
    G       A     D
I'd want it to be you
