You've Been a Friend
by the Jesus and Mary Chain
from the album Stoned and Dethroned
chords and lyrics transcribed by John Spencer

G (strum for a while)

G         C
what if I say
           G            C
I couldn't take another day
G         C                  G     C
  aw if I told you would you stay

and I got you
and you always see me through
aw if I told you would you stay

G                C
I can't live without you
G                C
I can't live without you
Am
I can't live without you
           C    D   G
now you're gone

oh is it true
did I leave you black and blue
I didn't tell you I was real

gone on so long
it feels so right but wrong
I couldn't tell you what I feel

G                C
I can't live without you
G                C
I can't live without you
         Am
but I'll try
         G
but I'll try

G C D

G                      C
  you let me come down easy
D                G
oh you've been a friend
                     C
you let me come down easy
D                 G
hey you've been a friend
                 C
oh you've been a friend
D                G
oh you've been a friend
                     C
you let me come down easy
D                 G
hey you've been a friend

Quiet song but it grew on me.  I'm not totally sure about the Am,
so let me know if you play something different, all feedback's more
than welcome.
