F Am C F

I've been gone for so long now

F Am G

Chasing everything that’s new

F Am C F

I've forgotten how I got here

F Am G

I have not forgotten you

F Am C F

We were just children but our eyes opened and

F Am G

You were all that i could see

F Am C F

You came close enough to know my heart beat but

F Am G

Still not close enough for me

F C

Through the good times and the bad

G Am G

You were the best I never had

F C G

The only chance I wish I had to take

F C

But there was no writing on the wall

G Am G

No warning signs to follow

I know now and I just can't forget

G F

You’re the best I never had

F C G Am G

Nana nana na

F Am

In this motel

C F

Well passed midnight

F Am G

When I’m bluer than a bruise

F Am C F

You come drifting in through the half light

F Am G

In your funny yellow shoes

F Am C F

And I hope that’s you standing at my doorway

F Am G

That’s the scratching of your key

F Am C

And I hope this song I’m singing

Someday finds you

F Am G

Wherever you may be...

F C

Through the good times and the bad

G Am G

You were the best I never had

F C G

The only chance I wish I had to take

F C

But there was no writing on the wall

G Am G

No warning signs to follow

I know now and I just can't forget

G F

You’re the best I never had

[Outro]
