C                       C               Dm                                Dm
Every night I'm lyin' in bed holdin' you close in my dreams,

C                               C                                    Dm                           Dm
thinkin' about all the things that we said and comin' apart at the seams.

       Em             Dm              Em                             Dm
We try to talk it over but the words come out too rough.

C                                     Dm                                    C         G
I know you were tryin' to give me the best of your love.


C                              C                              Dm                                Dm
Beautiful faces and loud empty places, look at the way that we live.

C                               C                             Dm                      Dm
Wastin' our time on cheap talk and wine left us so little to give

Em                                               Dm
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud

Em                                    Dm

that we could never rise above

C                                 Dm                                C          G

but here in my heart I give you the best of my love.

    C                                                              Dm
O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN' get the best of my love

Dm

YOU GET The best of my love

              C                                                               Dm

O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN' get the best of my love

Dm
YOU GET The best of my love

I'm goin' back in time and it's a sweet dream,

              F                                                                    Dm     Em

it was a quiet night and I would be alright if I could go on sleeping.


C                       C                        Dm                                      Dm
But every mornin' I wake up and worry what's gonna happen today.

C                                     C                             Dm                          Dm
You see it your way and I see it mine but we both see it slippin' away.

Em                                              Dm               Em                           Dm
You know we always had each other, baby, I guess that wasn't enough.

       C                                    Dm                                      C         G
Oh, but here in my heart I give you the best of my love.
