Lyrics and Chords

Intro: 0:00 0:11
C | C | Dm7 | Dm7  - x2

Verse 1: 0:21
C
Every night I'm lying in bed
 Dm7
Holding you close in my dreams.
  C
Thinking about all the things that we said
     Dm7
And coming apart at the seams.
0:43
Em7                 Dm7
  We try to talk it over
         Em7                F!
But the words come out too rough.
    C
I know you were trying
    Dm7                      C ->
To give me the best of your love.

Instrumental: 0:59
C | G Dm Em G7

Verse 2: 1:04
   C
Beautiful faces and loud empty places,
Dm7
  Look at the way that we live.
 C
Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine
Dm7
  Left us so little to give.
1:25
      Em7
That same old crowd
            Dm7
Was like a cold dark cloud
      Em7                  Dm7 | G7!!
That we could never rise above.
     C
But here in my heart,
   Dm7                     C
I give you the best of my love.

Chorus: 1:47

Bridge: 2:11
Fm7
  I'm going back in time
             C
And it's a sweet thing.
          Fm7
It was a quiet night,
             Fm7
And I would be alright
            Dm7!   G7!
If I could go on sleeping.
2:32
    C
But every morning
   C
I wake up and worry
Dm7
  What's gonna happen today.
2:43
 C
You see it your way
    C
And I'll see it mine,
        Dm7
But we both see it slipping away.
2:53

  You know we always had
     Dm7
Each other, baby.

  I guess that wasn't
  Dm7   G7!
Enough. Oh, oh,

But here in my heart,

I give you the best of my love.
