A5 
Well, who wipes me off when I get gravy on my shirt 
    A5                          E5 
And who knows exactly where to kiss me when I hurt 
    A5                    A5          D5 
And who?d make love with me on satin sheets or in the dirt 
A5        E5                  A5 
You babe, you're my bestest friend 
 
Who take me home when I get too drunk to dance 

And who bravely puts up with my uncles and my aunts 

And who discreetly whispers you forgot to zip your pants 

You babe, you're my bestest friend 


    D5                                    A5 
And who comes down and bails me out when I get in a jam 
    D5                                A5              E5 
And helps me tell the police where I live and who I am 
    A5           A5               D5 
And who rubs my back when no one else could give a damn 
A5        E5                  A5 
You babe, you're my bestest friend

Chorus 2: 
And who can be as gentle as a sparrow in my hand 
Meaner than a junk yard dog when she's fightin for her man 
And who's the only one I'll ever love and understand 
You babe, you're my bestest friend 
 
Talkin bout you babe, you're my bestest friend
