What a Friend You Are

A
What a friend you are!
           A7
If I had a golden star, 
    D
I'd pin it on you,
    Dm
For seeing it through
     A
With me, 
     E
With me.

What a friend indeed!
Oh, they all but had me treed
Till you came along,
And you made me strong
And free,
And free.

D
When I needed you, 
Dm
You were there before I knew 
  A
I needed you,
A7
You came through.


D
When the luck was bad,
Dm
When bad luck was all I had
    A
And no one cared,
E
You were there.

What a special friend!
Just the kind who'll never bend
Or break away,
You said you'd stay,
And here you are,
Here you are.

When I needed you,
You were there
Before I knew I needed you,
You came through.

When the luck was bad,
When bad luck was all I had
And no one cared,
You were there.

What a special friend!
Just the kind who'll never bend
Or break away,
You said you'd stay,
And here you are,
Here you are.

Dm                        A
What a special friend you are!

(Words and music by Tom Paxton, 1972)
