{C F Em F} x2
I wrote you a song (C)
I've penned a few words (F)
The sentiment's basic (Em)
If a little absurd (F)
I know you're like me
Always wanted a song
So here it is
Sorry it took me so long

This song is for you (C)
To sing or to play (C7)
I hope that it brightens (Dm)
Your dreariest day (Fadd9)
Because I'm your friend (C)
Or I just want to say 'hi' (C7)
Or you seem a bit off (Dm)
Delete what doesn't apply (add7)

I'm sorry you're ill
I'm glad that you're well
You've lost or gained weight
But I really can't tell
I wish we could talk more
But what would we say
Elton sang it first
But not to you, I'm afraid

This song is for you
To sing or to play
I hope that it brightens
Your dreariest day
Because I'm your friend
Or I just want to say 'hi'
Or you seem a bit off
Delete what doesn't apply

So you say your heart is broken, (D)
tell me it's not true (F C6)
Well I've got a defibrillator, (D)
or a pot of superglue (F G)

You're one in a million
But you haven't a clue
I hope you know who you are
'Cos the lyrics ring true
I wrote you this song
Won't you sing it with me?
It's not very hard
Try it and see

This song is for you
To sing or to play
I hope that it brightens
Your dreariest day
Because I'm your friend
Or I just want to say 'hi'
Or you seem a bit off
Delete what doesn't apply

This song is for you
I hope that you learn it
However you want
'Cos in my eyes you've earned it
Because I'm your friend
And I just want to say 'hi'
And if you're feeling down
I don't need to know why.
I don't need to know why
