D                     G
Well, I'm lookin' at you
         D                           G
And I'm wond'rin' what you're gonna do
D                       G
Looks like you got no friends
 D                    G
No one to stick with you till the end

Chorus:
G         F       D
Take yourself a friend
G         F       D
Keep 'em till the end
G        F        D
Whether woman or man
F             G       A
It makes you feel so good
       D
So good

Yes, you think you're all right
But now you're lonely every night
Well, you need a friend
Someone on whom you can always depend

Chorus

Yes, you need some advice
Well, let me put it to you nice
I said you need a friend
Someone who'll stick with you to the end

Chorus:
Take yourself a friend
Keep them till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good

Take yourself a friend
Keep them till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good

Take yourself a friend
Keep them till the end
Whether woman or man
It makes you feel so good
So good
