Chords for Alec Benjamin - I Built A Friend (Lyrics)

I built a friend
_ _ With three pieces plastic [F#m] and a pen
_ _ I made him on a table [D] in the den
_ _ I gave him my old cell phone for [A] a head
_ for [E] a head _
and [A] we spent
_ _ Holidays [G#] in my house and [F#m] we left
_ Presents in [A] a stocking and [D] we bought
_ Bolts and things and strings and a [A] new watch
_ That's what [E] he got
_ [D] And we had so much fun
together
[A] He knew we'd be [E] friends forever
_ [D] We had so much fun together
_ _ [A] We had so much [E] fun _
Then [A] I left
_ For college in September and [F#m] we wept
_ We can't [A] be together so [D] I kept
_ _ pictures to remember [A] my old friend
_ [E] my old friend
[A] Then I met
_ This girl at graduation [F#m] and forget
_ _ My oldest creation [D] and I guess
_ See you next vacation.
[A] Send my best.
I [E] send my best
_ [D] We had so much fun together
_ [A] We knew we'd [E] be friends forever
_ [D] Had so much fun together
[A] We had so [E] much fun I
_ [A] Came home
To find him on the table [F#m] with the note
_ _ Scribbled out in pencil [D] and he wrote
_ He just wasn't stable all [A] alone
all [E] alone
_ next [A] to him
_ _ An empty glass of water [F#m] that he spilled
_ All over the [D] body that I built
_ It fizzled and it popped and then [A] it killed
_ Then [E] it killed
_ _ [D] We had so much fun together
_ [A] We thought we'd be [E] friends forever
_ [A] [D] Had so much fun _ [A] together
We had so much [E]
fun I built a friend
_ _ [N] _ _
