  CHORUS:
  ....C............G........................................C...............G
  In times like these you find out who your friends are,
  ......................C....G.
  Bitter words I he - ar.
  ......F.........G..........C..................C7.....................
  But in such times, remember who those friends are;
  .......F...................G........C............E
  The ones who are always near.

  ...............Am.....E..............Am.....
  I've been down, face to the ground.
  F...........C..........F...............................G.......
  Evil feet kick me when I'm gagged and bound.
  ........E..................Am.........................E...............Am
  They stamp on my head; they grind my nose in the dirt.
  F.............C........F.............G......G7
  Such unrelenting anger and hurt.

  I've been used and abused, wrongly accused;
  Some perfect rights have been blankly refused.
  Jealousy jibes me, scorn slaps my face.
  Petered - out promises, lost without trace.


  G....A.....D.................G......................D............G......
  ..............When from a thin thread your future suspends
  D.....................G..............C...............A.......
  Don't be down hearted by fairweather friends

  ....D............A........................................D..............A
  In times like these you find out who your friends are.
  ......................D.....A
  Bitter words I he - ar.
  ......G.........A.........D...........................D7............
  But in such times remember who those friends are,
  .......G..................A.........D...
  The ones who are always near.
