[Intro] D G D G [Verse] D It's like when your making conversation G And your trying not to scream D And your trying not to tell them G But you don't care what they mean D And your really feeling fragile G And you really can't get home D And you really feel abandoned G But ya wanna be alone [Chorus] D G Old friends, they shine like diamonds D G Old friends, you can always call D G Old friends, Lord, you can't buy'em D G Ya know, it's old friends after all [Verse] D And when the house is empty G And the light begins to fade D And there's nothin' to protect you G Except the window shade D It's hard to put your finger G On the thing that scares ya most D And ya can't tell the difference G Between an angel and a ghost [Chorus] x2 D G Old friends, they shine like diamonds D G Old friends, you can always call D G Old friends, Lord, you can't buy'em D G Ya know, it's old friends after all
