Lyrics

(Eb)Time

has a way of (Cm7)chang ing ev ’ry thing.

That goes for al most an y thing but (Bb7sus)us.

“Al ways have,

and I al ways will re main.”

words from a heart that you can (Bb7sus)trust.

While (Gm7)oth ers come and go,

(Cm7)you can al ways know I’m here for (Fm7)you

when ev er you might (Bb7sus)need me.

(Eb)Some times if you’re (Cm7)luck y,

you’ll (Fm7)find that cer tain some one

(Eb)you can al ways (Cm7)count on to be (Fm7)true.

(Cm7)If I had the choice of on ly (Ab)one friend in this (Eb)world,

(Fm7)you know that I’d (Bb7sus)want it to be (Eb)you.

You’re still sweet as a hon ey bee

af ter all these years.

And you’ll al ways be that fun ny girl to (Bb7sus)me.

(Eb)Sea son to sea son, (Cm7)will our wish have a rea son?

You mean, to be the best of friends that we can be?

(Gm7)Some one you can turn to ev ’ry (Cm7)min ute of the day,...

...more (Fm7)mem ’ries to hold on to, that will (Bb7sus)nev er fade a (Bb7)way.

(Eb)Some times if you’re (Cm7)luck y,

you’ll (Fm7)find that cer tain some one

(Eb)you can al ways (Cm7)count on to be (Fm7)true.

(Eb)If I had the choice of on ly (Eb)one friend in this world, this world, (Fm7)you know that I’d (Bb7sus)want it to be (Eb)you.

You’re like a (Eb)sweet, fa mil iar song,

a good (Ab)book when I’m a lone,

a cup of (F)cof fee when I’m cold, a coun try road that leads me home.

Oh,

you know that (E)some times if you’re (C#m7)luck y,

you’ll (F#m7)find that cer tain (B7sus)some one

(E)you can al ways (C#m7)count on to be (F#m7)true.

(C#m7)If I had the choice of on ly (A)one friend in this (E)world,

(F#m7)you know that I’d (B7sus)want it to be (C#m)you.

Un (F#m7)til I make it (E)home a gain I thank God He gave me (E)you.

We’ll (F#m7)stay the way we (E)were, for ev er (C#m11)true.

There’s (F#m7)no one in this world that’s been a (B7sus)bet ter friend to (B)me

than (E)you.
