My words are lazy

My thoughts are hazy
Dm7 / Ddim7G7
But this is one thing I'm sure of
Cm7 / Ab6add13 /
Everybody needs a best friend

I'm happy I'm yours
A#maj7Cdim7
You got a double
Cm7C#dim7
Who brings you trouble
Dm7 / Ddim7G7
And though you're better without me
Cm7 / Ab7add13 /
Everybody needs a best friend
Cm7 F7add13 A#maj7
I'm happy I'm yours
D#m7 / Ab6add13 /
A fool could see decidedly
C#maj7 / G#/CA#7
That you're a ten and I'm a three
D#7sus2 / F#mM7 /
A royal breed is what you need
F7A#7D#7G#7 Bbadd11/FB9
So how did you come to be stuck with a bummer like me?

Everybody needs a best friend
