My Funny Friend And Me (from The Emperor's New Groove)

In the quiet time of (D)evening,

(C)when the stars assume their (G)(C)patterns (G)and the day has made his (D)(Em)jour

(Cmaj13)and we wonder just what (C)happened to the (Cmaj7)life we knew,

before the (Am7)world (Bm7)changed, when not a (Em)thing I held was (C#m7)true.

(Cmaj7)But you were kind to me,

(C)and you reminded me

(G)that the world is not my (D)playground;

(C)there are other things that (G)(C)(G)matter;

what is simple needs (D)protect

(Cmaj13)my illusions all would (C)happened to the (Cmaj7)life we knew,

before the (Am7)world (Bm7)changed, when not a (Em)thing I held was (C#m7)true.

(Cmaj7)But you were kind to me,

(C)and you reminded me shatter, but you (Bm7)stayed

in my (Am7)corner.

(Em)The only world I knew was upside (C#m7)down,

(Cmaj7)and now the world and me will know you carried me.

(G)You see the patterns in the (D)big (Em7)sky;

(Cmaj7)those constellations look like you and I.

(Em7)Just like the patterns in the (Bm7)big sky,

(C#m7)we could be lost;

we could (A9)refuse to try.

But to have (G)made it through in the (Am7)dark (Bm7)night,

(Em)who would those lucky guys turn out to (C#m7)be (Cmaj7)but that unusual blend

of my funny friend and (G)me.

(G)I'm not as clever as I (D)thought I was.

(C)I'm not the boy I used to (G)be,

(C)because (G)you showed me something diff'rent;

you showed me something (C)pure.

(Cmaj7)I always seemed so certain, but I was (C)really never sure.

But you (Cmaj7)stayed,

and you (Bm7)called my name (Em)when others would have walked out on a lousy (C#m7)game.

(Cmaj7)and look who made it through

but your funny friend and (Eb)you.

You see the patterns in the (Bb)big (Ab)sky.

(Abmaj7)Those constellations look like you and I.

(Cm7)That tiny planet and the (Cm)bigger guy.

(Abmaj7)I don't know whether I should laugh or (Bb7sus)cry.

(F)Just like the patterns in the (C)big (Bb)sky,

(Bbmaj7)we'll be together 'til the end this (Bb)time.

(Dm7)Don't know the answer or the (Dm)reason why.
