[G]If I closed my eyes[D] it doesn't hurt quite s[G]o bad[D]
´Cause t[G]onight I just los[D]t the best friend I[G] ever had[D]
[G]You were a maverick,[C] running all away from [G]New Orleans
We'd tel[G]l stories ´round the campfire late [D]at night, when it was down to ju[G]st you and m[D]e
Chorus
[Em]Good [C]friend, why [D]did you have to [G]go
[Em]Just when I was getting to [C]know you, I'l[D]l sing thi[D/C]s song t[D/B]o show [D/A]
You were a [Em]good [C]friend, they don'[D]t make 'em quite l[G]ike you
And in my [C]memory, you'l[C/B]l always be [D]a good, good friend t[G]o me
You said I got a home, boy, haven't seen it for so long
Said I'm going home, boy, mMy work is done, I can feel it in my bones
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
And in my memory, you'll always be a good, good friend to me
