Standard Tuning: No Capo
Intro: () () () ()
Verse 1
Run your car off the side of the road
Get stuck in a ditch
Way out in the middle of nowhere
Or get yourself in a bind
Lose the shirt off your back
Need a floor - need a couch - need a bus fare
This is where the rubber meets the road
This is where the cream is gonna rise
This is what you really didn't know
This is where the truth don't lie
Chorus
You find out who your friends are
Somebody's gonna drop everything
Run and crank up their car
Hit the gas - get there fast
Never stop to think
What's in it for me"
Or - "it's way too far"
They just show on up
With a big ol' heart
You find out who your friends are
Verse 2
Everybody wants to slap your back
Wants to shake your hand
When you're up on top of that mountain
But, let one of those rocks give way
Then you slide back down
Look up and see who's around then
This ain't where the road comes to an end
This ain't where the bandwagon stops
This is just one of those times when
Alot of folks jump off
Repeat Chorus
When the (Em7) water's hot
When the (A) weather's not so fair
When the (Em7) well runs dry
Who's gonna (NC) be there
Repeat Chorus
Man I've been there (D) (G)
