{c:1st note sung is an “E”}

[C]Thank you for being a friend
[F]Traveled down the road and back again
Your [G7]heart is true youʼre a pal and a confi[C]dant.
[C]I'm not ashamed to say
[F]I hope it always will stay this way
[G7]My hat is off, won't you stand up and take a [C]bow

[Am7]And if you threw a [F]party,
[Am7]Invited everyone you ever [D7]knew
[C]You would see the biggest [F]gift would be from me
and the [G7]card attached would say,


{C:Refrain:}
{soc}
Thank you for being a [C]friend
Thank you for being a [F]friend
Thank you for being a [G7]friend
Thank you for being a [C]friend
{eoc}


[C]If it's a car you lack
[F]I'd surely buy you a cadillac
What[G7]ever you need, anytime of the day or [C]night
[C]I'm not ashamed to say
I [F]hope it always will stay this way
My [G7]hat is off, won't you stand up and take a [C]bow

[Am7]And when we both get [F]older
With [Am7]walking canes and hair of [D7]gray
[Am7]Have no fear,
even [F]though it's hard to hear
I will [G7]stand real close and say,


{C:Refrain:}
{soc}
Thank you for being a [C]friend
Thank you for being a [F]friend
Thank you for being a [G7]friend
Thank you for being a [C]friend
{eoc}


{c:Bridge: optional:}
And when we [C7]die and float a[D9]way,
In[A7]to the night, the [D]Milky [G7]Way
Youʼll hear me [C7]call as we as[D9]cend
Iʼll see you [A7]there, then once [D]again


{C:Refrain:}
{soc}
Thank you for being a [C]friend
Thank you for being a [F]friend
Thank you for being a [G7]friend
Thank you for being a [C]friend
{eoc}
