D                G 
I threw a party. Nobody came
D                           E7               A7
I bought all the tickets. They cancelled the game.
D                      G   
I give you my picture. It didn't fit your frame
D        A            D
         Be my friend tonight

[Chorus]

G                     D
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
G                        D                       A7
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
D                              G
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
D              A               D
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight

[Verse 2]

D                         G
Now you bring the glasses and I'll bring the wine
D                        E7                  A7
I'll rub your shoulders just like they were mine
D                       G
I won't make no passes just passing time
D                     A              D
If your're only gonna be my buddy tonight

[Chorus]

G                     D
Be my friend tonight. Be my friend tonight.
G                        D                       A7
I'll sleep on the couch. You can leave on that light.
D                              G
Well, I won't do nothing wrong till you say it's right
D              A               D
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight

Well, I'll mind my manners. My P's and Q's
D                        E7             A7
I won't give you nothing that you can't use
D                             G
I'll whip out that old guitar and sing you the blues
D       A              D
        Be my friend tonight

[Chorus]

G                     D
