Intro: Em D/F# G A C D Em 
 
Em        D/F#               G             A9 
Since I was a young man I've doing what I can 
      C                 D             Em 
To escape the mental torture of my past     (Riff) 
 
Em                    D/F# 
I have changed all my beliefs 
      G               A9 
But nothing seems to last 
 
         C          D 
I need compassion, I need some patience 
G               G  D  G 
I need a friend 
 
 
G            D      G

Are you holding back again? 
                 C 
Your confessions are my sins 
           D                Em 
The war inside me has to end 
 
 
Em                 D/F# 
Summer's fading and I am too 
       G               A9 
I wish I was somewhere else 
 
            C 
I feel out of place 
         D              Em 
Wasting time spent by myself       (Riff) 
 
Em             D/F# 
Hotel rooms and solitude 
       G               A9 
And the songs left in my head 
 
          C 
It's all I know but right now 
D            G        G   D   G 
Baby, I need a friend

G                D       Em 
Are you holding back again? 
                     C 
Your confessions are my sins 
                D 
The war inside me has to end 
 
G               D    G 
Do you want to be my friend? 
G                    D        Em 
I've been found out, I can't pretend 
                     C 
It won't stop 'til I begin 
                  D 
So do you want to be my friend?

Somebody told me today
