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]

         
[intro]

                                                      
   Every night, I'm lying in bed, holding you close in my dreams
                                                                     
   Thinking about all the things that we said, and coming apart at the seams
                                                
   We try to talk it over, but the words come out too rough
                                                        
   I know you were trying to give me the best of your love

                                                               
   Beautiful faces, and loud empty places, look at the way that we live
                                                              
   Wasting our time on cheap talk and wine, left us so little to give
                                                                       
  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

                                                     
   Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
                                                     
   Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love

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

                                                             
   But every morning I wake up and worry, what's gonna happen today?
                                                                     
   You see it your way, and I see it mine, but we both see it slipping away
                                                               
   You know we always had each other baby, I guess that wasn't enough; o-o-ohh
                                                     
   But here in my heart, I give you the best of my love

                                                     
   Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
                                                     
   Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin', you get the best of my love
