C                            Fm72 
Every night, I'm lyin in bed holdin you close in my dreams 
C 
Thinkin about all the things that we said  
    F 
and comin apart at the seams 
Em7                 Dm7          Em7                F 
We tried to talk it over but the words come out too rough

C                                     Fm72 
Beautiful faces and loud empty places look at the way that we live 
C                                      F 
Wastin our time on cheap talk and wine left us so little to give 
     Em7                       Dm7 
That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud 
     Em7                 F 
That we could never rise above 
C                      Fm72                    C 
But here in my heart I give you the best of my love 
 
Chorus: 
G    C                                      F 
Whoa sweet darlin you get the best of my love, you get the best of my love 
G    C                                      F 
Whoa sweet darlin you get the best of my love, you get the best of my love 
 
Bridge: 
Fm                                  Cm72 
Oo, I'm going back in time an its a sweet dream 
Fm                          
It was a quiet night and I would be alright  
           Dm7   G7 
if I could go on sleeping 
 
Verse 3: 
 
C                                     Fm72 
But every morning I wake up and worry whats gonna happen today 
C                                            F 
You see it your way and I see it mine but we both see it slippin away 
Em7                         Dm7         Em7 
You know we always had each other baby, I guess that wasn't enough 
       C                      Fm72                    C     G, G7, G6, G7 
Oh, Oh but here in my heart I give you the best of my love 
 
Chorus: 
C                  F                      Cm72 
Whoa, sweet darlin you get the best of my love, the best of my love 
              F                                              Cm72 
Sweet Darlin, you get the best of my love, the best of my love 
                                   F 
Sweet Darlin, every night and day, you get the best of my love 
 
you get the best of my love 
Cm72                 F 
Oh, sweet darlin, oh you get the best of my love  x2 
 
I mean you play the entire last Chorus x2 but at the end you say  
"you get the best of my love" x2 and then strum a C at the end
