        C                                                                          Dm  
        Every night, I'm lying in bed, holding you close in my dreams
        C                                                                                                                        Dm  
        Thinking about all the things that we said, and coming apart at the seams
Em                                                    Dm                            Em                                            F/G  
        We try to talk it over, but the words come out too rough
             C                                                            Dm                                                            C            G7  
        I know you were trying to give me the best of your love
        C                                                                                                Dm  
        Beautiful faces, and loud empty places, look at the way that we live
        C                                                                                                  Dm  
        Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine, left us so little to give
                  Em                                                              Dm                                                 Em                                                    F/G  
     That same old crowd was like a cold dark cloud that we could never rise above
                  C                                                 Dm                                                         C            G7  
        But here in my heart, I give you the best of my love
                                     C                                          Dm  
        Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
                                     C                                          Dm  
        Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
Fm7                                                                                  C  
        I'm going back in time and it's a sweet dream
                                Fm7                                                                                                                Dm         G7  
        It was a quiet night and I would be all right if I could go on sleeping
                  C                                                                                  Dm  
        But every morning I wake up and worry, what's gonna happen today?
        C                                                                                                                     Dm  
        You see it your way, and I see it mine, but we both see it slipping away
Em                                                                            Dm                      Em                                                         Dm      G7  
        You know we always had each other baby, I guess that wasn't enough  o-o-ohh
                  C                                                 Dm                                                         C            G  
        But here in my heart, I give you the best of my love
                                C                                                Dm  
        Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
                                C                                                Dm  
        Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
