Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me.
(You've got a friend in me)
Ben, you're always ɾunning here and [Bm]there
(Here and [Bm]there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If you [A7ever look behind
And don't like [F]what you [A7find
There's something you [A7should know
You've got [Fm7]a place to [C7]go.
(You've got [Fm7]a place to [C7]go)
I used to [C7]say, "I" and [Bm]"me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
(I used to [C7]say, "I" and [Bm]"me")
(Now it's "us", now it's "we").
Ben, most people would turn you [A7away
I don't listen to [C7]a word they say
They don't see you [A7as I do
I wish they would tɾy to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like [F]Ben
(A friend) like [F]Ben
(Like Ben) like [F]Ben.
