Intro: D       G      D      G 

D 
One day things will turn out as planned 

You'll have her in the palm of your hand 
          G          (Em) D 
But it's not tonight, no not tonight 

D 
One day she'll look at you and say 

I never thought I could feel this way 
          G          (Em) D 
But it's not tonight, no not tonight 

D 
There will come a time 
                                   G    (Em) 
Where you will need your friends tonight 
D 
There will come a time 
                               G 
Where you will need someone tonight 

D 
One day she'll hang on to your arm 

Chasing the night all the way 'til the dawn 
          G          (Em) D 
But it's not tonight, no not tonight 

 D 
One day soon you'll find a way 

To learn to lie and what you're thinking you say 
          G          (Em) D 
But it's not tonight, no not tonight 

D 
There will come a time 
                                    G    (Em) 
Where you will need your friends tonight 
D 
And there will come a time 
                               G   (Em) 
Where you will need someone tonight 

D                                                        G    (Em) 
And when it feels like everyone's turning their backs on you 
D                                                        G    (Em) 
And when it feels like everyone's turning their backs on you 
D                                                         G       (Em) 
Oh well the sun's not out but you know you got to see it through 
D                                                         G       (Em) 
Oh well the sun's not out but you know you got to see it through 

D       G      D      G 

D (single strum) 
There will come a time 
                                    G   (Em) 
Where you will need your friends tonight 
D 
There will come a time 
                               G   (Em) 
Where you will need someone tonight
