[Intro]
G,D,Em7,Cadd9 x1
[Verse 1]
G
You're drivin' back home down 246
D
You almost hit a deer and you end up in a ditch
Em7
You can't pull forward and you can't back out
Cadd9
You're sittin' there thinkin' whatcha gonna do now
G
You'd be a little nervous if a cop showed up
D
'Cause you drank a little maybe just a little too much
Em7
Waitin' on a tow truck takes too long
Cadd9
It's two in the mornin'… who you gonna call
[Chorus]
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
Seven minutes later they're pullin' you out
Cadd9
You know the ones I'm talkin' about
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
Cadd9
You got a hundred buddies
G D
A couple of damn good friends
[Verse 2]
G
So you're all shootin' pool on a Saturday night
D
This little brunette keeps givin' you the eye
Em7
So you buy her a drink, before too long
Cadd9
You're out on the floor in the middle of a song
G
About that time her ex shows up
D
He's starin' you down gettin' all bowed up
Em7
He's a big ol' jacked up S.O.B
Cadd9
That's alright he's about to meet your…
[Chorus 2]
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
A few seconds later he's startin' to see
Cadd9
It ain't one on one… it's one on three
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
They do it for you 'cause you'd do it for them
Cadd9
You got a hundred buddies
G D Em7 Cadd9
But a couple of damn good friends
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
G
They're there even when you don't see 'em as much
D
Cause you moved away or you fell in love
Em7
But they're wearin' a tux when you're sayin' your vows
Cadd9
And if you crash and burn you can crash on their couch
Breakdown Chorus:
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
They love you like a brother there ain't no doubt
Cad9
You know the ones I'm talkin' about
G D
Friends… damn good friends
Em7
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
Cadd9
You got a hundred buddies
G D
And a couple of damn good friends
Em7 Cadd9
Oh, damn good friends
