"Best Friend" - Laufey

[Verse 1]
    Ebmaj7      Em7b5
It’s come to my attention
 Fm7              F#m7b5
That I don’t show enough
   Gm7
Of what I think
     G7          G#maj7        G#m7
It’s only when I drink I open up
      Gm7            C7(b13)
But I promise that I love you
Fm7            Bb13
Even with that hairdo
   Ebmaj7        Em7b5
I’m sorry I made fun of it
    Fm7                Bb13
It’s not your fault it looks like 
sh*t
Ebmaj7       Em7b5
I have never tolerated
Fm7            F#m7b5
someone for so long
     Gm7            G7
I’ve never laughed so much
          G#maj7        G#m7
I haven’t written a sad song
        Gm7             C7(b13)    
There’s no one else I’d rather fall
Fm7
 asleep with
    Bb13
And dream with
          Gm7  C7sus  Fm7 Bb13  
You’re my best friend in  the   
Ebmaj7
world

[Verse 2]
Abmaj7                     Abm7
When we’re ninety eight and ninety 
nine
Gm7
Tumbling down the stairs
             C7
You’ll barely catch me in time
Fm7                       Bb7
We’ll argue about what to watch on 
TV
Ebmaj7         D7               
Finally pick a movie then we’ll 
Db7  C7
fall asleep
     Fm7                         
We’ll still be a little bit 
Fm7*
strange
Fm7b5                     Bb13
Some things never change

[Verse 3]
     Ebmaj7          Em7b5    Fm7 
It’s funny cause you drive me half
 F#m7b5
 insane
  Gm7      G7                
A universe without you would 
G#maj7      G#m7
thoroughly mundane
       Gm7              C7(b13)   
There’s no one else I’d rather 
     Fm7
fall in love with
    Bb13       Gm7  C7sus   Fm7  
And that is my best friend  in   
Bb13    Ebmaj7  Em7b5
the   world
Fm7   Bb13   Ebmaj7  Em7b5
(Scatting)
        Fm7           Bb13
You’re my best friend in...
         Ebmaj7
the world...



Notes/tips:

-A good rule of thumb to remember 
when playing this song is the 
general shape of:
 x13121 and x12121, respectively to 
their positions.

-Fm7 in "we'll argue about what to 
watch online" is: 1x111x ...it is 
only used once in this entire song.
 All the Fm7 following and 
preceeding that is just the high 
Fm7.

-Fm7* refers to how Laufey plays it 
in the live version. Before she hits
 the D note, she switches to
 Fm7b5 to give it that lovely sound.

-If you're still relatively new to 
guitar/barre chords, this is the 
perfect opportunity to learn the 
places
 of "bass notes," as well as the 
different chord shapes of the same 
chord.
 (This will be important, and will 
help in reading chords once you 
improve through practice.)
