Verse (0:15)

A D
On this side of the divided room the light grows thin
Bb D
My world trembles with the sounds of them
A D
They move through the night, they run like fugitives
Bb D
Escaping with only just their lives



Chorus (0:34)

A G
You're friends of my world
You're brides and grooms
F
Much too soon
D
You're friends of my world
You pay as you go
A
You're in my show

Verse (0:58)

A D
On this side of the divided room the light grows dim
Bb D
In next to no time we're all involved again
A D
And science takes another man
Bb D
Too frail and scared to know what has possessed him



Chorus (1:18)

A G
You're friends of my world
You're this and that
F
Mud on the doormat
D
You're friends of my world
You came as you are
A
You left in my car

Oh baby you are so divine
G D
Across the desert, across the line

And the Sphinx that lies in Egypt's view

That's a friend of my world too
