The Who - How Many Friends: chords

F              Gm
I'm feelin' so good right now
           D#                    A#     Gm7        F
There's a handsome boy tells me how I changed his past
              Gm
He buys me a brandy
D#                   A#         Gm7      F
Or could it be he's really just after my ass?
               Gm
He likes the clothes I wear
D#                 A#      Gm7      F
He says he likes a man to dress in season
           Gm              D#               A#
But no one else ever stares, he's being so kind
 Gm7         C
What's the reason?

Chorus:
C          G             Am     F
How many friends have I really got?
                          G
You can count 'em on one hand
C          G             Am     F  G
How many friends have I really got?
C          G             Am     F
How many friends have I really got?
      A#   F        A#   F
That love me, that want me,
        A#   F/A Gm Gm7 C
that'll take me  as I   am?

Suddenly it's a silver screen
And a face so beautiful that I have to cry out
Everybody hears me
Well, I look like a fool, now, if I try and I shy out
She knows all of my friends
But it's nice to find a woman who'll stay on late
But now I think I've reached the end
I wonder in the dead of night, how do I rate?

Chorus

Cm               Cm/A#
It's all like a dream you know
              A#                   F
When you're still up early in the morning
Gm                 F                   D#
And you all sit together to watch the sun come through
Cm                Cm/A#
But things don't look so good
               G#
When you could use a bit of warning
Fm
Then you know that no one will ever
 C/G                   G
speak the truth about you.

Chorus

When I first signed the contract,
it was more than a handshake then
I know it still is, but there's a plain fact
We talk so much shit behind each other's backs,
I get the willies
People know nothing about their own soft guts
So how come they can sum us up
Without suffering all the hype we've known
How come they bum us up

Chorus
