Damn Good Mates

       G
You're drivin' back home down route 56
    D
You almost hit a root and you end up in a ditch
    Em
You can't pull forward and you can't back out
       C
You're sittin' there thinkin' whatcha gonna do now
      G
You'd be a little nervous if a cop showed up
           D
'Cause you drank a little maybe just a little too much
Em
Waitin' on a tow truck takes too long
C
It's two in the mornin'... who you gonna call

G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
Em
Half an hour later they're pullin' you out
C
You know the ones I'm talkin' about
G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
        Em
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
          C
You got a hundred friends
                      G
A couple of damn good Mates

          G
So you're all shootin' pool on a Saturday night
     D
This little brunette keeps givin' you the eye
       Em
So you buy her a drink, before too long
       C
You're out on the floor in the middle of a song
G
About that time her ex shows up
     D
He's starin' you down gettin' all bowed up
       Em
He's a big ol' jacked up S.O.B
C
That's alright he's about to meet your...

G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
Em
A few seconds later he's startin' to see
C
It ain't one on one... it's one on three
G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
Em
They do it for you 'cause you'd do it for them
C
You got a hundred friends
                          G
But a couple of damn good Mates

        G
They're there even when you don't see 'em as much
          D
Cause you moved away or you fell in love
    Em
But they're wearin' a tux when you're sayin' your vows
           C
And if you crash and burn you can crash on their couch

G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
Em
They love you like a brother there ain't no doubt
C
You know the ones I'm talkin' about
G                   D
Mates ... damn good Mates
Em
You can count 'em all on one of your hands
C
You got a hundred friends
                          G
And a couple of damn good Mates
