[Intro]
G C G
C G
   If you need a friend

[Verse 1]
G C G                      Em
     Don't look to a stranger
                C
You know in the end,
              G     C
I'll always be there
G                        C
 But when you're in doubt
G                   Em
 And when you're in danger
Take a look all around,
C           G     C
 and I'll be there

[Chorus]
G    G
 I'm sorry,
but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
  Em
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
    C
But if you wait around a while,
     Cm
I'll make you fall for me
  G          D                 G C
I promise, I promise you I will
G
 When your day is through

[Verse 2]
G C G               Em
     And so is your temper
You know what to do
C                   G     C
 I'm gonna always be there
G                    C
 Sometimes if I shout
G                  Em
 It's not what's intended
                     C
These words just come out
                G    C
With no gripe to bear

[Chorus]
G    G
 I'm sorry,
but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
  Em
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
    C
But if you wait around a while,
     Cm
I'll make you fall for me
  G              D             G   C G
I promise you, I promise you I will

[Interlude]
Em C G C G
Em C D

[Chorus]
    G
I'm sorry,
but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
  Em
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
    C
But if you wait around a while,
     Cm
I'll make you fall for me
  G              D
I promise you, I promise

[Outro]
    G
I'm sorry,
but I'm just thinking of the right words to say
  Em
I know they don't sound the way I planned them to be
       C
But if you wait around a while,
Cm
make you fall for me
  G              D                 G
I promise you, I promise you I will
