YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND IN ME - Randy Newman Tabbed by: CalvinMills E-mail: calvin@long-mills.ca This tab partially comes from this fabulous human found here: https://youtu.be/VX90yzZV-tY He has a fingerstyle arrangement of the song available for download but I just wanted to sing along so I touched up some of the chords a bit. This is the only version I have found that is in the key E, which I find suits the genre more than the key of C. Unfortunately, that means you have to tune down a half step, but you gotta do what you gotta do. Chord Chart at the bottom.
