My Friend Chords by Jimi Hendrix

[G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ I'm going [E] to [G] _
_ [G#] [G] sing a song.
[A#] Y [G]'all pass me that bottle [D] and I'll sing y'all a real [Gm] song.
[C] _
_ Yeah.
_ [G] _ _ [G#] _ [C]
[G] Let me get my keys.
_ _ [D] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] _ _ [F] _ [F#] _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ [F] _ [F#] _ [Gm] _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ [Em] _ [D] _ [C] _ _
[G] _ _ [E] _ _ [C] _ [G] _ [A#] _ [C#] _
[C] _ [G] I'll see you [F#m] somewhere [E] in hell.
[D] Or [C] was it just [F] an [G] accident?
You know how I felt, yeah.
_ [D] _
So, [G] uh, before I could [C] ask what's in the east or west [Fm] side,
my feet, they [F#] howled [C] and banged.
[G] The wheels of a [C] bandwagon cut very deep, but not [F] as deep in [F#] my mind [G] as it [C] rained.
[B] And as they pulled away, I could see their [G] words stagger and [D] fall on my [C] muddy tent.
[G] Well, I picked them up, brushed them off [C] to see what they said.
[G] [A#] And you wouldn't [A] believe.
[E]
[G] Come around to [F#m] my room [Em] with a tooth in [D] the middle.
[C] I bring along a [F] bottle and a [G] present.
And [B] sometimes it's not so easy, baby.
[Em] Especially [D] when your [C] only friend [Gm] [F#m] coughs, [E] sees, looks, [D] and feels [C] like you.
And you do [F] just the same [G] as him.
_ It gets very lonely out in this world, baby.
_ [D] Yeah.
_ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ [G] Got [C] _ _ [G] more to say.
[D] _ [G] Well, I'm riding through L [C].A. [F] on a bicycle [F#m] built [G] for fools.
And I seen one of my [C] old buddies.
He say, you [Dm] don't look the way [F#] you used to [G] do.
[F#m] I say, well, some people look like a coin box.
[C] He say, [Em] look like you ain't [D] got no coins [C] to spare.
[G] And I lay back and I [C] thought to myself.
_ _ [G] [A#] And I [A] said this.
[C] I just [F#] pick up my [E] pride from [D] underneath the [C] payphone and comb this breath [F] right out [G] of my hair.
[C] And [F#m] sometimes [B] it's not so easy.
[Em] Especially when [D] your [C] only friend [G] [F#m] coughs, [Em] sees, looks, [D] and feels [C] like you.
And you do [F] just the same [G] as him.
All right.
_ _ _ _ [D] _
_ [G] I just got out of a [C] Scandinavian jail.
[F] And I'm on my way [F#] straight home [G] to you.
But I feel so dizzy [C] I take a quick look in the mirror [F] to make sure my [F#] friend's here with [G] me too.
[C] [F#m] And you know good and well I don't drink coffee.
[Em] So you [D] feel my cup full of [C] sand.
[Gm] And the frozen tea [C] leaves on the bottom.
[G] Sharing [A#] lipstick [C] around the broken edge.
[G] And my coat [A#] that you left [C] your dog laid by the fire.
[G] And your [Dm] cat, he attacks me from his [C] pillbox ledge.
[G]
And I thought [A#] you were my [C] friend too.
[G] Then my [Dm] shadow comes [C] in line before you.
[Fm] I find [F#m] out that it's not so [B] easy.
Especially when your [C] only friend [G] coughs, looks, [F#m] [Em] sees, and [D] feels like you.
[C] And you do the same [G] just like [C] him.
[G] [F#m] But sometimes [D] it's [C] not so easy.
[G] _ _ _ _ _ [A]
Catch you that bottle again.
_ _ It's gay.
