Introdução: G C G  F#m7 B7  
 
             Em       B7           
      Em        B7    Em7  B7 Em  
When you're down and troubled and you need a helping hand  
    Am            D           G     Am   G  
And nothing, oh, nothing is going right,  
F#m7                 B7         Em        B7         Em7  B7 Em  
Close your eyes and think of me and soon I will be there  
   Am7         Bm7                 D   D7      
To brighten up even your darkest night. 
  
         G                           C              Am7  
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am  
           G                  D                           
I'll come running to see you again.  
   G                        C                          Em7                    
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call  
             C    Bm7        Am7  D7    C      G       C G Am G F#m B7  
And I'll be there,   yeah, yeah, yeah.  You've got a friend.  
  
       Em    B7             Em       B7    Em7 B7  Em  
If the sky above you should turn dark and full of clouds  
     Am        D                   G     Am G  
And that old north wind should begin to blow,  
F#m7           B7     Em      B7     Em7  B7  Em  
keep your head together and call my name out loud.  
Am7          Bm7                D  D7       
Soon I'll be knocking upon your door.

You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am  
           G                  D                           
I'll come running to see you again.  
   G                        C                          Em7                    
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call  
             C    Bm7        Am7  D7    C      G       C G Am G F#m B7  
And I'll be there,   yeah, yeah, yeah.  You've got a friend.  
 
Bridge:  
    C         F      C         
Hey ain't it good to know that you've got a friend, when   
G                C                     
People can be so cold?  
         F7  
They'll hurt you and desert you.  
       Em7                   A7                     
Well, they'll take your soul if you let them,  
      Am               D7           
Oh yeah, but don't you let them.  
 
 
         G                           C              Am7  
You just call out my name,  and you know wherever I am  
           G                  D                           
I'll come running to see you again.  
   G                        C                          Em7                    
Winter, spring, summer, or fall,  all you got to do is call  
             C    Bm7        Am7  D7    C      G       C G Am G F#m B7  
And I'll be there,   yeah, yeah, yeah.  You've got a friend.

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend

Ain't it good to know you've got a friend
