Biography:
Warner Music Nashville / Atlantic Records artist Devin Dawson is not your typical country artist. His look is dark and bold. His sound is sleek and raw. He has a knack for writing razor sharp stories that cut straight to the heart, full of detail and clever turns of phrase. And his songs speak the language of a new generation. Dawson is an edgy study in contrast, poised as the next bolt of lightning to hit country’s family tree.
His approach to music is not different on purpose, it’s different with purpose.

E A C#m B (x4)
[Verse 1]
E A C#m B
Hey I was just wondering if anyone was sitting here
E A C#m B
And if not, would it be okay if someone bought you a beer
E A C#m B
Let's say that someone wanted to dance
E A C#m B
Would he have any snowballin' hell of a chance
E A C#m B
To get you out on the floor before this slow song ends
F#m A
Yeah, I'm just asking for a friend
[Verse 2]
E A C#m B
He ain't ever been any good at laying it all out on the line
E A C#m B
I swear down deep, believe me girl, he's a really good guy
E A C#M B
If you can find it in your heart just to cut him some slack
E A C#m B
He'd be johnny-on-the-spot here in two seconds flat
E A C#m B
Yeah, he's holding his breath, come on give him a second with you
F#m A
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
C#m
Yeah what do you say
A B
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
C#m A
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
B
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
C#m B
Just one drink would sure mean a lot to him
A
Yeah, I'm just asking for a friend
[Verse 3]
E A C#m B
Let's say this friend of mine went and messed up real bad
E A C#m B
And he'd do anything in this world, girl, to get you back
E A C#m B
Hey what kind of sorry would it take
E A C#m B
For a man to erase his worst mistake
E A C#m B
And would this even begin to make a dent
F#m A
Oh yeah
[Chorus]
C#m
Yeah what do you say
A B
It's Friday night and you're beautiful, so beautiful
C#m A
What man wouldn't make you the love of his life
B
He'd be a fool, he'd be a fool
C#m B
I don't mean to ramble on like this
A
Hey I'm just asking for a friend
[Verse 4]
E A C#m B
Yeah what if I told you he hadn't slept in weeks
E A C#m B
He was standing right here in front of you instead of me
F#m
Is there any way you could ever love him again
