C C C C
[Verse 1]
C F Dm
She just sat there and she brushed her hair
G C F G
Lord, it sure was dark and long
C F Dm
I got up and drank a half warm beer
G C
Found my boots and put 'em on
[Verse 2]
C F Dm
She was not sure where she stood with me
G C F G
As she straightened out her clothes
C F Dm
So I kissed her warm red lips again
G C F G
And I whispered soft and low, baby
[Chorus] (close harmony duet between Johnny and Janie)
C F
Baby, it couldn't have been any better
F G C
It couldn't have been any sweeter
C F Dm
We couldn't have climbed any higher

If we'd been to the top of the world
C F
We couldn't have got any closer
F G C
We couldn't have gone any farther
F Dm
It couldn't have been any better
Dm G7 C A7 D
And you're my best friends girl
