Chorus:
F#5 G#5
Were you my friend when I belonged?
A5 Bsus2
Were you my friend when I was strong?
F#5 G#5

A5 Bsus2
Were you my freind when I was callin', crawlin', out of
my head?

The solo is in F# pentatonic, I believe, for any improvisers
or theory buffs. No promises on this tab...Alex is very
creative and very hard to follow. Oh yeah, in the chorus
that Bsus2 chord looks like this:
--2--
--2--
--4--
--4--
--2--
