Un Ami ("A Friend") by Ennio Morricone
(The chord in the introduction is just a D and the guitar's playing Ds, F#s, and Gs)
G D/F#m Em Bm
Si le ciel entend ma prière, mes amis ce soir je chante
Am Am/G Bm
pour tous ceux qui n'ont rien, rien sur la terre,
D/F#m Em D C
pas d'amis pour les attendre, les comprendre chaque jour
D
leur redonner un peu d'amour.
G D/F#m Em Bm
Le bien et le mal se ressemblent et les hommes s'y laissent prendre.
Am Am/G D/F#m Em
Je ne sais plus que faire et il me semble que l'enfer est sur la terre,
Em D C D G
les amis qui m'entourent, des amis d'un jour.

Le bien et le mal se ressemblent mais les hommes s'y laissent prendre
Am Am/G Bm
Un ami reste toujours un ami quand la vie n'a plus d'amour
Em D C D G
Depuis toujours ma prière c'est d'avoir sur terre
Em D C D G
au dernier soir de ma vie, la main d'un ami
Em D C D G
pour dire adieu à la vie, les yeux d'un ami.
If the sky hears my prayer my friends, this evening I sing
for all those who have nothing, nothing in the world,
no friends to wait for them, understand every day,
give them a little love.
The good and the bad are similar and people are deceived.
I don’t know what to do and it seems like hell on earth,
the friends about me, these are friends for a day.
The good and the bad are similar, but people are deceived,
A friend remains always a friend [even] when life has no more love.
It has always been my prayer, that on earth,
on the last evening of my life, to hold a friend’s hand,
to say goodby to life, to look into the eyes of a friend.
