My Own Best Friend Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]I'm beginning to like you[C]
But, you know that [G]ain't right
'Cause you'll just [D]twist
and twist and twist
Till I'm all crooked in[G]side
You'll take [D]all you gave

[Verse 2]
[C]me
Like it never [G]was there
And [D]I think that I might, no, I know
Yes, I will help [G]you there
'Cause, I've [D]done it be

[Verse 3]
[G]fore
[C]and I'd do it aga[G]in
'Cause it's the [D]only time
That makes me feel like I'm
My own be[G]st friend

[Verse 4]
I'm a victim of fric[C]tion,
I got too close [G]to see
Yeah, [D]we sparked in the dark and God
hung a light on [G]me
The lamp gets [C]real heavy,
it hangs [G]from my heart
And [D]it comes and it goes till I can't
tell the difference [G]apart
But I've [D]done it before

[Verse 5]
[G]
[C]and I'd do it [G]again
'Cause it's the [D]only time
That makes me feel like I'm
My own be[G]st friend

[Verse 6]
[G]
So many [D]people say,
it will never work [G]out that way
You can't [B]stand the heat
While you're watching your heart
Just [C]melt away in the basement
on a [A]rainy day

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]

[Verse 7]
There's motel in Shreve[C]port
Don't ask [G]me where, please
They check [D]in , they check out
By the light of the color [G]T.V.s
The maid [D]calls you honey

[Verse 8]
[C]
She makes [G]your bed slow
And she speak[D]s,
of the sheets that don't fit
But you know that she [G]knows
I've [D]done it be

[Verse 9]
[G]fore [C]and
I'd do it [G]again
'Cause it's the [D]only time
That makes me feel like I'm
My own be[G]st friend, my own best friend
My own best friend,

[Outro 1]
my own best friend
[G][G][G]
