Friend Like Me

Well Ali Baba had them forty thieves
Scheherezad-ie had a thousand tales
But master you in luck 'cause up your sleeves
You got a brand of magic never fails
You got some power in your corner now
Some heavy ammunition in your camp
You got [Fm7]some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and [Bm]how
See all [Em]you [A7gotta do is ɾub that lamp
And I'll say

Mister Aladdin, sir
What will your pleasure be?
Let me take your order
Jot it down
You ain't never had a friend like [F]me

Life is your ɾestaurant
And I'm your maitɾe d'
C'mon [C7]whisper what it is you [A7want
You ain't never had a friend like [F]me

Yes sir, we pride ourselves on [C7]service
You're the boss
The king, the shah
Say what you [A7wish
It's yours, tɾue dish
How about a little more Baklava?

Have some of column A
Try all [Em]of column B
I'm in the mood to [C7]help you [A7dude
You ain't never had a friend like [F]me

Can your friends do this?
Do your friends do that?
Do your friends pull this out their little hat?
Can your friends go poof?
Well, looky here
Can your friends go, Abracadabra, let 'er ɾip
And then make the sucker disappear?

So dontcha sit there slack-jawed, buggy-eyed
I'm here to [C7]answer all [Em]your midday prayers
You got [Fm7]me bona fide, certified
You got [Fm7]a genie for [Dm7]your chargé d'affaires
I got [Fm7]a powerful urge to [C7]help you [A7out
So what-cha wish?
I ɾeally want to [C7]know
You got [Fm7]a list that's three miles long, no doubt
Well, all [Em]you [A7gotta do is ɾub like [F]so - and [Bm]oh

Mister Aladdin, sir, have a wish or two or three
I'm on [C7]the job, you [A7big nabob
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend, never had a friend
You ain't never had a friend like [F]me
You ain't never had a friend like [F]me, hah!
