[Verse 1]
             Em      B                Em     B       Em
When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand,
    Am           D                G
and nothing, oh, nothing is going right,
F#m                 B               Em     B       Em
close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there
   Am          Bm                     D
to brighten up even your darkest night.
 
[Chorus]
         G                          C               Am
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am,
          G                     D
I'll come running   to see you again.
G                                 C                    Em
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call
         C             Bm    Am   D
and I'll be there,     yeah, yeah, yeah.
D                  G   C G       F#m  B
You've got a friend.
 
[Verse 2]
B      Em   B                    Em       B             Em
If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds,
         Am        D                        G
and that old north wind should begin to blow,
F#m              B          Em      B        Em
keep your head together and call my name out loud.
Am           Bm                 D
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door.
 
[Chorus]
         G                          C               Am
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am,

I'll come running   to see you again.
G                                 C                    Em
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call
         C             Bm    Am   D
and I'll be there,     yeah, yeah, yeah.
 
[Bridge]
    F                          C
Hey ain't it good to know that you've got a friend when
G                                  C            F
people can be so cold.     They'll hurt you and desert you.
        Em                    A
they'll take your soul if you let them.
             D
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.

You've got a friend.  You've got a friend.
C                            G
Ain't it good to know you've got a friend?
