Verse 1
D 
Remember when I saw you standing,
slightly crying, empty -handed,
Em 
with no one that you could call your own?
A 
Looking up to someone somewhere,
asking for life with no despair,
begging for the world to
D 
leave you alone.
Guess I shouldn't have butted in,
but you looked as if you could use a friend,
and I'd lost one myself and was
Em 
looking about.
G 
A 
Remember it was kinda crazy
D 
Bm 
I held my hand out, you took it baby
Em 
A 
For a while we helped each
D 
other out
G 
A 
Remember how I dried
D 
Bm 
every tear that you cried
Em 
A 
And gave you love to trust
D 
beyond a doubt
G 
A 
And whenever I was down
D 
You made me laugh,
Bm 
brought me around
Em 
A 
Here for a while we helped
D 
each other out
And early one day in the morning sun
That time came we knew would come
When in our hearts,
Em 
well, there was love no more
A 
I guess we're just two of that kind
That look for life but never find
The love in mind that we
D 
were looking for
But I'll always have a
warm spot for you
Cause at one time I adored you
Em 
And if I pass this way again, I'll shout
G 
It may be a year before
A 
I  come through but
D 
Bm 
When I do, I'll call on you
Em 
Cause at  one time,
A 
D 
we helped each other out
Em 
A 
D 
At one time, we helped each other out
