Intro:C F G 
 
C                      F                 
My mama got married to someone I barely knew 
G                         F             G 
They had me and then they had my sister too 
C                       F 
I was too young to understand why he left 
    Am                              G 
But how it broke Mama's heart, I'll never forget 
 
F                             G            D 
It was three years before she met somebody new 
F                   C               F        G  
And though I didn't have much to compare him to 
 
Chorus: 
           C            F         C 
He was the best man, my mama ever loved 
F                 C                   F                    G    
Not the kind that walks away, but the kind that don't give up 
  Am        Em        F              C 
Devoted and true, someone to look up to 
F             C                G  
Even a boy of eight could understand 
           Intro 
He was the best man 
 
C                        F 
He called me his son and I called him my dad 
G                         C          F   
He was the like no friend I had ever had 
C                                           F 
He taught me how to drive a nail and how to build a go-cart 
Am                           G 
And how to love a women with all of my heart 
 
F                        G               D 
One night we watched him get down on one knee 
F               C                 F        G 
And ask mama to be his wife, then he asked me 
 
          C               F            C 
To be the best man, and I stood by his side 
      F          C            F         G 
As he lifted the veil of that beautiful bride 
Am        Em  F            C 
He said I do, then she did too 
        F                    C             G 
And she walked back down the aisle holding hands 
         Solo Chords 
With the best man 
 
**The Chords for the solo are: A F G(x2)** 
 
Am        Em      F            C 
He said I do, and then she did too 
        F                    C             G 
And she walked back down the aisle holding hands 
         Intro 
With the best man 
 
End On C
