[Refrão]
G Am7
So you sailed away
Cadd9 G D/F#
To a gray sky morning
G Am7
Now I'm here to stay
Cadd9 G D/F#
Love can be so boring
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
And nothing's quite the same now
Am Em Dsus2
I just say your name now
[Chorus]
G Am7
But it's not so bad
Cadd9 G D/F#
You're only the best I ever had
Em Am7
You don't want me back
Cadd9 G D/F#
You're just the best I ever had
[Interlude]
G Am7 Cadd9
[Verse 2]
G Am7
So you stole my world
Cadd9 G D/F#
Now I'm just a phony
G Am7
Remembering the girl
Cadd9 G D/F#
Leaves me down and lonely
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Well send it in a letter
Am Em Dsus2
Make yourself feel better
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
F G
And it might take some time to
Cadd9 G/B Am
Patch me up inside
F G
But I can't take it so I
Em F
I run away and hide
F G
And I might find in time that
Cadd9 G/B Am G F
You were always right
G F G
You're always right
[Verse 1]
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Was it what you wanted?
Am Em Dsus2
Could it be I'm haunted?
[Chorus]
[Outro]

You're just the best I ever had
