Song for a friend - Kelli Schaefer
Verse:  A   E   F#m   D   A   E   A   E   F#m  
Chorus:  D   A   D   A   D   E  A  
Verse 1
There are so very few appropriate words  
And everything I try to say ends up coming out absurd
So I'm not gonna say anything to you
Chorus
I'm just gonna stand by your side
I'm just gonna hold your hand tight 
I'm just gonna stand by your side 
until it's through
Verse 2 
I could say that I love you a hundred times
Then I go turn my back on you and those words prove to be lies
So I'm not gonna say anything to you
Chorus
Chorus Whistled
Verse 1
Chorus
She does actually finger style this song but you can figure out what you want with that.
