Friends Ukulele Chords

Cracker  Friends
 
Transcribed by Jfregly
 
Every chord in the song gets four beats, except where there s a G followed by an F in
intro, in the verse and in the chorus.
The G and F get two downstroke beats each.  Oh, and there s a country-style finish at
end, with a quick D G flourish.  That s it.
