G Bm
On the Isle of Montserrat, though I never shall forget
Am D7
Just a country boy, a guitar and a song
G Bm
You in-vited me in, and you treated me like kin
Am D7
And you've given me a reason to go on
G Bm Em7 C G D7
My old friend, thanks for in-viting me in
G Bm Em7 C Am Am7 D7
My old friend, may this goodbye never mean the end
G G7 C
If we never meet again this side of life, in a little while, over yonder,
A7
Where it's peace and quiet
G Bm Em7 C D G
My old friend, won't you think about me every now and then
Bm Em Em7
G Bm
If I told you how I feel, oh, it wouldn't sound so real
Am D7
'Cause emotions, they are just now settin' in
G Bm
But it sure is great to know, that wher-ver we may go
Am D7
We can always be the best of friends
G Bm Em7 C G D D7
My old friend, thanks for in-viting me in
G Bm Em7 C Am Am7 D7
My old friend, may this goodbye never mean the end
G G7 C
If we never meet again this side of life, in a little while, over yonder,
A7
Where it's peace and quiet
G Bm Em7 C D G
My old friend, won't you think about me every now and then
Bm Em Em7

And I'll think about you,
D G
My old friend
Bm Em Em7
C D G
Yeah, my old friend
