Eagles - The Best of My Love: chords

C
Every night, I'm lying in bed,
 Dm
holding you close in my dreams
  C
Thinking about all the things that we said,
     Dm
and coming apart at the seams

Em                Dm
We try to talk it over,
         Em                 G
But the words come out too rough

    C
I know you were trying
    Dm                       C  G7
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

I know you were trying
To give me the best of your love

Chorus:
           C
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin',
                        Dm
You get the best of my love
           C
Oh-oh-oh ohhhh, sweet darlin',
                        Dm
You get the best of my love

Fm7                                C
I'm going back in time and it's a sweet dream
          Fm7
It was a quiet night and
                                Dm      G7
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 slippin' away

You know we always had each other baby
I guess that wasn't enough

Oh, but here in my heart
I give you the best of my love
