He  was a friend of mine
A                  F#m
His killing had no purpose
   D          E
No reason, or rhyme
A E       D         A Asus4 A Asus4 
He  was a friend of mine

He  was in Dallas town
A                  F#m
From a sixth floor window
  D               E
A gunner shot him down

He  died in Dallas town

A E       D       A Asus4 A Asus4 
He  never knew my name

He  never knew my name
A              F#m
Though I never met him
  D                 E
I knew him just the same
    A E       D         A Asus4 A Asus4 
Oh, he  was a friend of mine

A           F#m
Leader of a nation
    D               E
For such a precious time
    A E       D         A Asus4 A Asus4 A 5x
Oh, he  was a friend of mine
