[Intro]
A

[Verse 1]
                        A                                                             F#m
I built a friend with three pieces of plastic and a pen,
                                                         D
I made him on the table in the den,
                                                                 A
I gave him my old cellphone for a head,
                 E
For a head.
               A
And we spent holidays in my house,
             F#m
And we left presents in the stocking,
                     D                                                                               A
And we bought bolts and things and strings and a new watch,
                              E
That's what he got.

[Chorus]
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                            E
We knew we'd be friends forever.
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                              E
we had so much fun.

[Verse 2]
             A
Then I left for college in September
              F#m
And we wept cause we can't be together
         D                                                               A
So I kept pictures to remember my old friend,
                 E
My old friend.
              A
Then I met this girl at graduation
              F#m
And forget my oldest creation
             D
And I guess I'll see him next vacation
                A                        E
Send my best, I send my best

[Chorus]
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                            E
We knew we'd be friends forever.
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                              E
we had so much fun.

[Verse 3]
A                                                                         F#m
I came home to find him on the table with a note
                                                        D
Scribbled out in pencil and he wrote
                                                       A
That he just wasn't stable all alone,
            E
All alone.
                  A                                                            F#m
Next to him, an empty glass of water that he spilled
                                          D
All over the body that I built,
                                                              A
It fizzled and it popped and then it killed,
                       E
And then it killed.

[Chorus]
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                            E
We thought we'd be friends forever.
D
And we had so much fun together,
A                              E
we had so much fun.
                A
I built a friend.
