Verse 1
C
Friends are never earned
F
they're a gift from the loving God
And they're precious
beyond human evaluation

C
or they'll lift away like a smoke
Am
And the warmth of their caring will vanish
D
Daug
into the chill of the endless nights
G
C
Most of my friends are unknowns they probably
won't even rate an obituary
Unless they live and die
in a small town
Somewhere where nothing
F
much ever happens
Bb
But a few of my friends
are big people
C
They'd made the word ring with laughter
Am
Dm
F
down to this string of court

Than those wonderful nobody's
who live and die in small towns

of encouragement and concern
G
Makes you realize that
C

you're not really lost at all
C
F
Friends come in both sexes in all
