Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
I [Em]had a friend who wanted to be a writer,
so he learned everything he could learn.
He studied at the feet of Shelly and Keats,
he left no sage's stones unturned.
Then he [A]de cided to put his
words to song,
but he didn't know where to start.
So he [Em]listened to Dylan,
Chris Christophs,
and John Prine, and Guy Clark.
I can [D]still see my friend
at a [A]table at the bitter end
[Em]Raskin' with a song
and cryin' out in the dark
You could hear him [C]say, Whoa,
[D]whoa, whoa, where's [Em]me?
He can sing it again
[C]Whoa, whoa, [D]whoa, where's [Em]me?
Had a friend who wanted to be a husband
He tried several times
Had two blondes and a brunette,
but that redhead blew his mind
She wanted [A]to be a singer,
making it in Nashville was her dream
[Em]Guess who helped her with a brief career
and paid for everything?
I can [D]still see my friend at
[A]his rope's end
[Em]Broken all alone,
I can still hear him moan
[C]Whoa, whoa, [D]whoa, whoa, [Em]it's me
Say it [C]again, [D]oh, oh,
that's [Em]great[A]

He a friend who thought he'd get rich
On a deal that couldn't go wrong
He cashed in his stocks and bonds
And put a second mortgage on his home
He [A]wanted to retire by the
time he was forty
Instead he was taking for a ride
Now he's [Em]fifty -five,
he's starting all over
Kissing her every time of goodbye
He was [D]such an easy touch
Now he's [A]drinking way too much
[Em]Sure hurts me to see a grown man [C]cry
[D]Woah, woah, woah, adm[Em]it it
Yeah, [C]yeah
Woah, [D]woah, woah, admit [Em]it
I hitchhiked over the mountains
Made my way across the sea
Worked a cargo ship
Man, that was a trip
Definitely not the life for me
Can it [A]be I'm stuck with a life as a drifter,
no place to call home?
And if I [Em]stay on the move,
can't find my groove,
I'm pretty much assured of being alone
Like [D]the friends I talk about,
I'm [A]trying to live without
That [Em]peace and satisfaction of my own
I [C]say, whoa, whoa, [D]whoa, whoa with [Em]me
I say it again
[C]You're all [D]I n[Em]eed
[C]You're all [D]I need

[Outro 1]
