D         F#m       Bm       Em
And I never thought I'd feel this way
                      C#m7
And as far as I'm concerned
      F#7                     Bm
I'm glad I got the chance to say 
     G               A 
That I do believe I love you
    D           F#m  Bm   Em
And if I should ever go away
           Em7                 C#m7
Well then close your eyes and try
             F#7          Bm
To feel the way we  do today 
         G             A
and then if you can remember


[Chorus]

D             F#m
Keep smiling, keep shining
 G                              F#m    Bm
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
  G                     A
That's what friends are for
D               F#m    
For good times, and bad times
D7               B7          Em
I'll be on your side forever more
A
That's what friends are for


[Instrumental]
D         F#m       Bm       Em


[Verse]
         Em             C#m7
Well you came and opened me
               F#m             Bm
And now there's so much more I see
       G                A
And so by the way I thank you 
    D            F#m         Bm     Em
And then for the times when we're apart
                                C#m7
Well then close your eyes and know
             F#7        Bm
These words are coming from my heart
G                        A
And then if you can remember


[Chorus]

D                F#m
Keep smiling, keep shining
 G              Em              F#m    Bm
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
  G                      A
That's what friends are for
D                  F#m    
For good times, and bad times
D7               B7          Bb6   Bbmaj7 Bb6
I'll be on your side forever more
D                       A7sus   A7
That's what friends are for
