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
