Best Friend (The Dog Song) By: Tom Seley (I tuned the guitar a half-step down and played this song in the key of B on the album, I play it in C live) C You can scratch your own back G You don?t have fleas F You stand up in my defense G When they make fun of me C You brush your own teeth G You don?t bark a lot F You don?t have a crazy name G Like Bingo, Fido or Spot Am Dogs are good and dogs are nice G But they never spoke up and gave me good advice Am You can take ?em for walks and there?s tricks they can do G But I would rather hang out with you C G F G They say that a dog is a man?s best friend F G C But my best friend is you When you fall It?s always nice to have a friend To be there when you hit the ground To pick you back up again Like when my car broke down I knew all I had to do was call your phone If you were a dog, I would to had to hoof it on home alone Chorus Solo Verse Chorus You can roll over once But you don?t play dead You have all kinds of brains and thoughts Rollin around in your head (Am7) We have the funniest conversations Laughin? all day long I know that it?s just understood But it sounds better in a song G7 And if you like it you can sing along Double Chorus
