Asking For A Friend chords by Devin Dawson

Intro:
E A C#m B (x4)


Verse 1:
    E          A            C#m        B
Hey I was just wondering if anyone was sitting here
       E             A       C#m        B
And if not, would it be okay if someone bought you a beer
      E        A       C#m       B
Let's say that someone wanted to dance
         E        A           C#m       B
Would he have any snowballin' hell of a chance
           E          A     C#m         B
To get you out on the floor before this slow song ends
F#m   A
Yeah, I'm just asking for a friend

Verse 2:
         E            A        C#m           B
He ain't ever been any good at laying it all out on the line
  E          A             C#m      B
I swear down deep, believe me girl, he's a really good guy
           E               A             C#M          B
If you can find it in your heart just to cut him some slack
        E                  A       C#m         B
He'd be johnny-on-the-spot here in two seconds flat
           E           A            C#m            B
Yeah, he's holding his breath, come on give him a second with you
   F#m A
Oh yeah


Chorus:
     C#m
Yeah what do you say
     A                       B
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
     C#m                       A
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
     B
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
C#m                  B
Just one drink would sure mean a lot to him
A
Yeah, I'm just asking for a friend


Verse 3:
      E        A              C#m             B
Let's say this friend of mine went and messed up real bad
            E        A       C#m          B
And he'd do anything in this world, girl, to get you back
    E         A        C#m      B
Hey what kind of sorry would it take
      E      A         C#m   B
For a man to erase his worst mistake
          E    A    C#m   B
And would this even begin to make a dent
   F#m  A
Oh yeah


Chorus:
     C#m
Yeah what do you say
     A                       B
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
     C#m                       A
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
     B
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
C#m             B
I don't mean to ramble on like this
A
Hey I'm just asking for a friend


Verse 4:
     E         A        C#m       B
Yeah what if I told you he hadn't slept in weeks
        E             A       C#m          B
He was standing right here in front of you instead of me
F#m
Is there any way you could ever love him again
A
