[Verse 1]
B                                  E
I lived a life of illusion and you had your kicks
   A                             F#m G
So what, there's nothing left to do
    B                                E
And you and your obsessions and your crucifix
             A                        F#5 B5
As if what I thought mattered much to you
 
[Chorus]
    E                  C                       B
And you were always my friend from Childhood's End
          A        G
It was forever and ever
    E        C
Did you understand
                 B
It's Childhood's End
               G        A
But never, the dream is over
 
[Verse 2]
B                     E              A
Sunday morning in the New York Times
                     F#5 G5
I read you died last night
B                                 E              A
It said you were smilin' when you blew your mind
                        F#5 B5 E5
And the note you left behind said:
 
[Chorus]
E                  C                       B
You were always my friend from Childhood's End
              A        G
Seems like forever and ever
      E                            C
Yeah, you won't have to have to pretend
              B
It's near the end
    A                        G
You won't ever be a rock and roller
      E                  C                       B
Yeah, you were always my friend from Childhood's End
    A                   G
But never, the dream is over

So what, there's nothing left to do
And you and your obsessions and your crucifix
As if what I thought mattered much to you

And you were always my friend
From Childhood's End
It was forever and ever
Did you understand
It's Childhood's End
But never, the dream is over

Sunday morning in the New York Times
I read you died last night
It said you were smilin' when you blew your mind
And the note you left behind
Said

You were always my friend
From Childhood's End
Seems like forever and ever
Yeah, you won't have to pretend
It's near the end
You won't ever be a rock and roller

Yeah, you were always my friend
From Childhood's End
But never, the dream is over

You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I'll think of you

And you were always my friend
From Childhood's End
It was forever and ever
Did you understand
It's Childhood's End
But never, the dream is over

And you were always my friend
From Childhood's End
It was forever and ever
You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I'll think of you

You've got something about you
You've got something I need

You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I'll think of you

You've got something about you
You've got something I need

And you were always my friend
From Childhood's End
It was forever and ever
I think of you
You were just like me
I was just like you
For eternity I'll think of you
