Intro: C G/C Fadd9/C F/C x4

C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
When I saw him last he had that look in his eyes
C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
I said, "Do you need to talk?", he said, "No."
C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
So I called him up, asked him again and I waited a while
C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
he began to speak, then he started to cry

Am G F
You know some things are best left unspoken
Am G F
and some things just never work out
C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
Sometimes, seems you try and you try and whatever you do
C G/C Fadd9/C F/C
There's a fix that you're in, and you just can't get out

Am F Am G Am G F
He said, "I need your help, I need it now
Am F Am G C
Give me the strength to go on"

Though I didn't know what I knew that something was wrong
He still had his pride, he'd tell me in time
Well this feeling inside kept eating at me
I was losing a friend, and I had to know why

When I heard the voice on the phone, I knew it was bad news
So I rushed to be by his side
And we said goodbye for the last time
I gently hugged him, and kissed him goodbye

He whispered, "I need your help, I need it now.
Give me the strength to go on."

F/C Cadd9
We were always laughing, I just remember laughing, mama
F
We were always laughing

Oh I need your help, I need it now
Give me the strength to go on

Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db x2

Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db
Though as time goes by, and it all becomes clear
Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db
We can see the deceit, we see the lies
Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db
So I asked myself, over and over, and over again
Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db
What did they know? What did they hide?

Bbm Ab F#
Fools, leading the innocent blindly
Bbm Ab F#
Fools, turning away

And I know that when I think of my friend with that look in his eyes
And if they told the truth, he might be here today

Bbm F# Bbm Ab Bbm Ab F#
I need your help, I need it now
Bbm F# Bbm Ab Db
Just give me the strength to go on
Bbm Ab F#add9
I remember the laughing, We were always laughing
Db Ab/Db F#add9/Db F#/Db
Oh no, it's just strength we need now

Just the strength to go on...
