[Verse 1]
   A
We never know which way the wind will blow,
                                        E
Nor when or where the next turmoil will be.
    D            E                  A
But he's a solid rock when troubles grow,
         E                             A
And he's holding out a saving hand for me.

Fairweather friends, fairweather sai - lors,
                  E                     A
They’ll leave you strand - ed on life's shore.
A                         D     A
One good friend who truly loves you
             E                    A
Is worth the pain your heart en - dures.

[Verse 3]
           A
He'll be a refuge in the storm;
                         E
He'll be a beacon in the night;
       D               E                    A
In the chilly winds of doubt he'll keep you warm;
     E                                     A
When you can't find your way he'll be your light.

One good friend who truly loves you
             E                    A
Is worth the pain your heart en - dures.
