THE BEST OF MY LOVE

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
that we could never rise above
but here in my heart I give you the best of my love.

Dm
O-O-O-OH SWEET DARLIN' get the best of my love
YOU GET The best of my love
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,
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 G
Oh, but here in my heart I give you the best of my love.
