"My Old Friend" - Arlo Guthrie 
From "Live In Sydney" 
(Standard Tuning) 


Verse 1 
C   /   E   /   Am   /   C7   /  
My         Old    Friend 

F   /   D9   /   C   /   /   / 
   Every   now     and   then 

F   /   D9   /   C   /   A   /  
   Your   face   just   comes   to   mind 

D9   /   /   /   G   /   /   / 
   And I Recall the    good    times 

C   /   E   /   Am   /   C7   / 
When   you      and   I         would 

F   /   D9   /   C   /   /   / 
Watch     the   days    go   by 

F   /   D9   /   C   /   Am   / 
   We   thought they   never      end 

D9   /   G   /   C   /   /   / 
My      old      friend 


Verse 2 
My old friend 
I can't remember when 
We met or when the last time was 
We had to say good bye 
Because you and I 
We laughed as time went by 
Now you're just around the bend 
My old friend 

Chorus/Bridge/Whatever 
Am   /   /   /   E7   /   Am   / 
   The    world seems   col      der 

F   /   G   /   C   /   /   / 
   So   much   has   changed 

Dm   /   /   /   E7   /   /   / 
   As   you    look   down   from    up 

Am   /   /   /   C7   /   /   / 
above    

F   /   /   /   D9   /   /   / 
   I'm   getting      older       

C   /   /   /   A   /   /   / 
   You're still   the   same 

D9   /   /   /   /   /   /   / 
   Still I'm thankful   for       these 

G   /   /   /   /   /   /   / 
memories                  of 

Verse 3 
My old friend 
I'll see you again 
Time flies when you're smiling 
So I hope it'll take a little while 
And you and I 
Will watch the world go by 
And we won't care if it never ends 
My Old Friend
