Chords
[Verse 1]
I built a friend A
With three pieces of plastic and a pen F#m7
I made him on the table in the den D
I gave him my old cell phone for a head,A for a head E
And weA spent holidays at my house
And weF#m7 left presents in a stocking
And weD bought bolts and things and strings
And a new watch,A that's what heE got
[Chorus]
And Dwe had so much fun together
AWe knew we'd be friendsE forever
And weD had so much fun together
AWe had so much fun E
[Verse 2]
Then IA left for college in September
And weF#m7 wept 'cause we can't be together
So IDsus2 kept pictures to remember my oldA friend, my oldE friend
Then IA met this girl at graduation
And forgetF#m7 my oldest creation
And IDsus2 guess I'll see him next vacation
Send myA best, I send myE best
[Chorus]
And Dwe had so much fun together
AWe knew we'd be friends Ef orever
And weD had so much fun together
AWe had so much fun E
[Verse 3]
I cameA home to find him on the table
With a note,F#m7 scribbled out in pencil
And heD wrote
That he just wasn't stable all alone,A all alone E
Next to him,A an empty glass of water
That heF#m7 spilt
All over the body that ID built
It fizz led and it popped
And then it killed,A and then it killed E
[Chorus]
And Dwe had so much fun together
AWe thought we'd be friendsE forever
And weD had so much fun together
AWe had so much fun E
I built a friend
