Be My Friend Tonight
By John Prine
D G
I threw a party, nobody came.
D E A7
I bought all the tickets, they cancelled the game.
D G
I give you my picture, it didn't fit your frame
D A7 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 nothin' wrong, til you say it's right
D A7 D
Come on Honey, be my friend tonight
D G
Well you bring the glasses, and I'll bring the wine,
D E A7
I'll rub your shoulder, just like it was mine.
D G
I won't make no passes, til it's passin' time,
D A7 D
If your only gonna be my buddy tonight.

Be my friend tonight, be my friend tonight
