G          Bm    C             G
  We get by       on love and faith
G          Bm         C              G
  We get by  with a smile on our face
G           Bm    C             G
  We get by  with help from our kin
G            Bm         C                    G
  We get by   through thick and through thin

[Verse 2]
G               Bm       C                    G
  Was just the other day, I heard from my old friend
G               Bm             C      G
  She was going through changes once again
G                 Bm  C                G
  Matters of the head, matters of the heart
G                Bm                  C                G
  Maybe too early to tell, but it's never to late to start

[Chorus]

G            D      Em            C
  We get by              We get by
   G                D#dim      Em
No matter how long,   I'll be waiting here for you
C      G
We get by

G            D      Em            C
  We get by              We get by
   G          D#dim      Em
No matter how long,          I'll be waiting
C      G
We get by
