I Need A Friend

Tone [G]

I need a [Cadd9]friend, who sticks by me through all of my [D /F#]sins, who uncomplicates
the complicated t[Cadd9]hings. Is there such a f[G]riend?[D /F#] [Cadd9]A friend who tells me I’m not crazy, [D /F#]someone who will pick me up daily. [Cadd9]Cause
god only knows, I’ve been on my [G]knees too [D /F#]long.

I’ve been [G]leaning, on bricks that won’t [D /F#]protect me, I guess I’m just too
[Em7]heavy, they [D /F#]resent me cause they don’t wanna [Cadd9]help me.
I know I’m not the [G]only one, who’s got demons that may [D /F#]haunt me, and I don’t
wanna [Em7]face them [D /F#]all [Cadd9]alone

[D /F#]opposite of me, these delusions I don’t read. Feel the [Cadd9]need to keep me clean,
cause you know that I`ll achieve all my [G]dreams, you`ll
redeem my short [D /F#]comings.

I’ve been [Cadd9]waiting for my commons to ignite another drama can you deal [D /F#]with
all of that, can you deal with all of that? [Cadd9]Is there such a friend? [G]Is there
such a [D /F#]friend?
