Intro: F-Edim/C-Dm-Dm/C-Bb-
       C-Bb---- pause C7

F                             Edim       
I've still been searching and long have I waited
      Dm       Dm/C      Bb
For someone to like me as me
   Gm         Ddim              F/A     Dm
To laugh with, to cry with, to be just beside with
  Bb      C             F
A friend, that's who I need

(Use Stanza Chords)
To fight with me, walk with, to know
that you need them
Believing that they need you, too.
To walk hand in hand with, to argue, to talk with
A friend, that's who I need.

Refrain:
   Bb     F        Bb    F
And even though I make mistakes
     Bb               Gm  C--
And never do anything right
  Bb      F         Bb        G
A smile, a hug can change our acts
     Bb          F        C-D7--
And everything will be alright

Em                        F#dim
Someone who shares all my dreams and ambitions
     Em            Em/D      C
Someone who will love me as me
C           Edim       G          Em
I need this person, someone to rely on
C             D        G
A friend, that's who I need

Coda:
                 D      G
A friend, that's who I need.
