Best Of My Love  crd



THE BEST OF MY LOVE (Don Henley, Glenn Frey, J.D. Souther)
----------------------------------------------------------
[Play the first C's as x30000 -> x32010, and the Dm's as xx0030 -> xx0231...
it'll make sense if you try it.]

[Each chord is one measure]

C C Dm Dm
[intro]

C C Dm Dm
Every night, I'm lying in bed, holding you close in my dreams
C C Dm 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 C Dm Dm
Beautiful faces, and loud empty places, look at the way that we live
C C Dm 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 C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love

Fm7 Fm7 C C
I'm going back in time and it's a sweet dream
Fm7 Fm7 Dm G7
It was a quiet night and I would be all right if I could go on sleeping

C C Dm Dm
But every morning 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 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 C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
C C Dm Dm
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
