[Intro 4x] F  Bb/F

F                       C7/E
Ben, the two of us need look no more
F                          C7/E
We both found what we were looking for
F7M                     A4/E
With a friend to call my own
     A7/C#     D#7(5-)
I'll never be alone
    D7               C#7(5-)
And you my friend will see
       C7             F           Bb/F            F   Bb/F
You've got a friend in me (you've got a friend in me)

Fm                         C7/E
Ben, you're always running here and there
Fm                        C7/E
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
F7M                A4/E
If you ever look behind
    A7/C#               D#7(5-)
And don't like what you find
        D7                   C#7(5-)
There's something you should know
       C7            F           Bb/F           F    Bb/F
You've got a place to go (you've got a place to go)

  Gm7(11)     C7/E
I used to say
F7M
I and me
Gm7(11)      C7/E
Now it's us
F
Now it's we

  Gm7(11)     C7/E
I used to say
F7M
I and me
Gm7(11)      C7/E
Now it's us
F           Bb/F
Now it's we

F                           C7/E
Ben, most people would turn you away
F                   C7/E
I don't listen to a word they say
F                     C7/E
They don't see you as I do
                     D#7
I wish they would try to
    D7                 C#7(5-)
I'm sure they'd think again
        C7                F   Bb/F
If they had a friend like Ben
    F     Bb/F         F    Bb/F
(A friend)        Like Ben
      F   Bb/F       F
(Like Ben)      Like Ben
