Old Friends

D G D G 
 
D                             
It's like when your making conversation 
G 
And your trying not to scream 
D 
And your trying not to tell them 
G 
But you don't care what they mean 
D 
And your really feeling fragile 
G 
And you really can't get home 
D 
And you really feel abandoned 
G 
But you wanna be alone 

D             G 
Old friends, they shine like diamonds 
D            G 
Old friends, you can always call 
D            G 
Old friends, Lord, you can't buy 'em 
D                                G 
Ya know, it's old friends after all 
 
And when the house is empty 
And the light begins to fade 
And there's nothin' to protect you 
Except the window shade 
It's hard to put your finger 
On the thing that scares ya most 
And ya can't tell the difference  
Between an angel and a ghost 
 
CHORUS
