      Oh         Oh           thanks to all that let me strand


[Verse]

A                        C#
When I start thinking of you
      B
Of my present and past friends
         E
I see me then inside a shell
A                    C#
No refuge nothing to do
        D
So they were my family
         E
I didn’t know what could it mean


[Bridge]

F#               A
They found their way
D          E
So nice so straight
F#         A        D  A
They found their way
D          E
No time to stay


[Chorus]

A  C#m  Bm                C#m
Oh      thanks for all my friends
A  C#m  Bm                 C#m
Oh      thanks to all that let me strand

[Verse]

A                       C#
Some of them around the world
        B
Someone else is still in touch
        E
Most of them have stopped to learn
A                       C#
One of us just seems to lose
        D
For his scare to be betrayed
       E
He’s behaving like a slave

F#m              A
they found their way
