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)

                          CYou (x32010@1)can scratch your own back
                 GYou (320003@1)don't have fleas
 FYou (133211@1)stand up in my defense
      GWhen (320003@1)they make fun of me
                     CYou (x32010@1)brush your own teeth
                   GYou (320003@1)don't bark a lot
 FYou (133211@1)don't have a crazy name
          GLike (320003@1)Bingo, Fido or Spot


AmDogs (x02210@1)are good and dogs are nice
GBut (320003@1)they never spoke up and gave me good advice
AmYou (x02210@1)can take 'em for walks and there's tricks they can do
GBut (320003@1)I would rather hang out with you

   C (x32010@1)          G (320003@1)       F (133211@1)          GThey (320003@1)say that a dog is a man's best friend
     F (133211@1)      G (320003@1)      CBut (x32010@1)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
G7And (320001@1)if you like it you can sing along

Double Chorus
