Em                    B7(F#bass)   B7  Em       B7       Em B7(F#) Em
When you're down and troubled and you need some love and care 

Am7          D       D6  D7     G   Am G  F#m7
and nothin', nothin' is goin' right,      Close your eyes and 

B7-9    B7    Em     B7         Em  B7 Em        Am7           Bm7
think of me and soon I will be there          To brighten up even your 

            C6 D C6  
darkest night.      


Chorus :

           G                          C                            G
You just call out my name and you know wherever I am  I'll come runnin'

            C6   D   G                        Gmaj7  C                     G6

G7         C       Bm7  Am7 C6                G       C   G Am G F#m7 B7 
   and I'll be there.         You've got a friend. 


2nd Verse :

If the sky, above you grows dark and full of clouds.  And that ol'
north wind begins to blow, Keep your head together and call my name 
out loud; Soon you'll hear me knockin' at your door.  --> to chorus
