[Intro 1]
[C][G][Bb][G][D][C][G][Bb][A]

[Verse 1]
When [Dm]you got
a good [D]friend
[G]That will stay right by your sid[D]e,
When you got [G]a good friend
That will stay right by your [D]side,[G][D]
Give her all [A]your spare time,

[Verse 2]
I mistreated [Dm]my ba[G]by[D]
[G]And I can't see no reason
[D]why.
I mistreated [G]my baby
And I can't see no reason [D]why.[G][D]
Any time [A]I think about it
[G]I just wring my hands and
cry.
[D][C][G][Bb][A]

[Verse 3]
Wonder could [D]I ever apologize
[G]Or would she sympathize
[D]with me?[G]
Would she sympathize [D]with me?
She's [A]a brown-skin woman,
woman,
[G]Just as sweet as a girlfriend

[Interlude 1]
can be.
[D][Bm][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
[G]Babe, I may be right or [D]wrong.
Babe, it's your [G]opinion,
Well, I may be right or [D]wrong.
Watch [Am]your close friend, [A]baby,
Then your [G]enemies can't do you no harm.

[Verse 5]
When you got [Dm]a good [D]friend
[G]That will stay right by your sid[D]e,
When you got [G]a good friend
That will stay right by your [D]side,
[G]Give [D]her[Am] all your spare time,
[G]Love and treat her right.
