GOOD FRIEND - ROBERT JOHNSON

G G7

When you got a good friend that will stay right by your side

C G G7

When you got a good friend that will stay right by your side

D C G

Give her all your spare time, try to love and treat her right

G7

I mistreated my baby, I can't see no reason why

C G G7

I mistreated my baby, I can't see no reason why

D C G

Every time I thinks about it, I just wring my hands and cry

G7

Would the good old baby apologise or would she sympathise with me?

C G G7

Would the good old baby apologise or would she sympathise with me?

D C G

She's a brownskin woman, just as sweet as a girl friend can be

G7

I love my baby, but why can't we can't agree

C G G7

I love my woman, but why can't we can't agree

D C G

I really love that woman, wonder why we can't agree

G7

It's your opinion friend-girl, that I may be right or wrong

C G G7

It's your opinion friend-girl, that I may be right or wrong

D C

But when you watch your close friend, baby, then your enemies

G

can't do you no harm

G G7

When you got a good friend that will stay right by your side

C G G7

When you got a good friend that will stay right by your side

D C G

Give her all your spare time, try to love and treat her right
