[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em
Old friends are cold and warm like oceans
G/D
And they turn when there’s a season
C
And they learn when there’s a reason
Em
To be near
[Verse 2]
Em
And I could hardly stand the weather
G/D
If I thought that I would never
C
Have the comfort of my brothers
Em
Through the years
[Chorus]
D
And if you lose your money well honey you know
Em
It’s the least of what you have
D
So believe in me you can take it or leave
C
But you’ll never lose a friend
B7 Em
You’ll never lose a friend
[Verse 3]
Em
When you feel the fear arising
G/D
And the spirit in you hiding
C
And there’s nobody there to care for you
Em
When you’re down
[Verse 4]
Em
Heaven knows it’s just the weight of the load
G/D
And the changes in the way of the road
C
So believe and what you need
Em
Will come around
[Chorus]
D
And if you lose your money well honey you know
Em
It’s the least of what you have
D
So believe in me you can take it or leave
C
But you’ll never lose a friend
B7 Em
You’ll never lose a friend
