Dave Cousins - Song For Alex
[Intro]
C F C F C G/B Am F G
F C F C F C F
[Verse 1]
C F
I've been many places
C F
I've passed through many cities
C G/B Am F G
Paris to Toronto and the rest
F C
The travelling gig can bring you down
F C
When you're always on your own
F C
But I see friendly faces everywhere
[Instrumental]
C F C F C G/B Am F G
F C F C F C F
[Verse 2]
C F
From a song that pulls your heartstrings
C F
To a sea of smiling faces
C G/B Am F G
Oh, but a careless word can make you feel so sad
F C
But in the end I add things up
F C
And I find it's all worthwhile
F C
When I see friendly faces everywhere
[Instrumental]
C F C F C G/B Am F G
F C F C F C F
[Verse 3]
C F
The windswept streets are empty
C F
When my working day is over
C G/B Am F G
And I always think of home last thing at night
F C
Then I close my eyes and fall asleep
F C
For I know that in my dreams
F C
That I'll see friendly faces everywhere
