Here it comes on my head again
Well I guess I'm born to be the long lost...

(Chorus)
E          B             Asus2       B
Friend            Aw     whoo
Friend             long lost friend

       I've given ballast,
         A5                        C#5
Held you up when you were falling down
            B5                  A5
But what happens when I'm not around?
