HE WAS A FRIEND OF MINE- The Byrds

A E D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
He was a friend of mine
A E D A Asus4 A Asus4 A
He was a friend of mine
A F#m D E
His killing has no purpose, no reason or rhyme
A E D A Asus 4 A Asus4 A
He was a friend of mine

He was in Dallas town
He was in Dallas town
From a sixth floor window a gunner shot him down
He died in Dallas town

He never knew my name
He never knew my name
Though I never met him, I knew him just the same
Oh he was a friend of mine

A F#m D E
The leader of a nation for such a precious time
A E D A
Oh he was a friend of mine
