Topic: Thinking About Old Friends

I have a habit of reminiscing about all my friends that I’ve known. There are quite a few spread out all over the world. I know it is difficult but catching up with them when I get the chance is something chance doesn’t let happen very often so I was thinking I should make the time. That’s where I got this song idea from. Hope you like it.

Thinking About Old Friends By Jeff Gilpin


August 17th, 2007




Intro


[E] [A] [E] [D] [D] [A] [B7] [E] [E7]




Verse 1

[D]Thinking I’ll [E]try and catch [A]up




Verse 2


[A]Lots of friends lots of [E]places


[D]Some are who knows [A]where[E]


[A]They’re still all [E]my friends


[D]Living [E]on out [A]there




Chorus 1


[E]Wondering how they’re [A]doing


[E]Wondering where they’ve [D]been


[D]Wondering what’s new in [A]their life



And [B7]knowing they’re still my [E]friend[E7]




Verse 3


So [A]I’ll try and [E]find them


[D]When I find a little [A]time[E]


When [A]I do we’ll [E]catch up


Yeah [D]that [E]would be just [A]fine

[E]Hearing how they’re [A]doing


[E]Hearing where they [D]been


[D]Hearing what’s new in [A]their life


Letting them [B7]know I missed my [E]friend[E7]

[A]Sounds like [E]a plan


I’m [D]on it as soon as I get [A]home[E]


[A]Can’t wait [E]to hear


All I’ve [D]missed [E]while I’ve [D]roamed[A]

Re: Thinking About Old Friends

There are several people I would love to locate and say hello - never quite seem to get around to doing it though.  Your song reminds me that I need to make the effort sooner rather than later.

Re: Thinking About Old Friends

The good thing about my commute is I get to think a lot...good ideas tend to gravitate to songs with me as well as the idea too so I get a double bonus!

Re: Thinking About Old Friends

My best friends are so precious to me! so undemanding. Even if we dont meet for a long time, we just pick up where we left off. Never any pressure.
Thank you all Mó Cáras and you Jets.
