 D#m            B              F#         C#
Sometimes you think you'll be fine by yourself,
        D#m         B            F#         C#
Cause a dream is a wish that you make all alone.
     D#m      B         F#             C#/F
It's easy to feel like you don't need help,
         G#m       F#            C#/F
But it's harder to walk on your own.

       G#m       A#m
You'll change inside,
     D#m     C#
When you realize.

Chorus:
                    B
The world comes to life,
    F#            C#sus4 C#
And everything's bright.
        D#m        B
From beginning to end,
     G#m         C#
When you have a friend,
         B          F#          C#sus4 C#
By your side, that helps you to find,
    G#m        A#m
The beauty you are,
         D#m        C#
When you open your heart,
      G#m     C#sus4
And believe in
     C#        D#m  B F#
The gift of a friend.
     C#        D#m  B C#sus4  C#
The gift of a friend.

Someone who knows when
you're lost and you're scared
There through the highs and the lows
Someone to count on
Someone who cares
Beside you wherever you'll go
You'll change inside, when you realize

Chorus

    D#m
And when your hope crashes down,
  B
Shattering to the ground,
F#                  C#
You, you feel all alone.
         D#m
When you don't know which way to go,
     C#                           B
And there's no signs leading you home,
C#sus4       C#
You're not alone.

Chorus:
The world comes to life,
and everything's bright
From beginning to end,
when you have a friend by your side
That helps you to find
The beauty you are when you open your heart
And believe in
When you believe in
When you believe in the gift of a friend
Ooh-ooh
