Verse: 



Fmaj7          Am     C    Fmaj7 
    I've been gone for so long now 

Fmaj7       Am                 G 
    Chasing everything that?s new 

(**from here the chord progression simply repeats until the Chorus**) 


Fmaj7    Am    C       Fmaj7 
  I've forgotten how I got here 

Fmaj7    Am             G 
  I have not forgotten you 

Fmaj7       Am         C            Fmaj7 
  We were just children but our eyes opened and 

Fmaj7      Am                G 
  You were all that i could see 

Fmaj7      Am           C            Fmaj7 
   You came close enough to know my heart beat but 

Fmaj7        Am               G 
  Still not close enough for me 





            Fmaj7               C 
Through the good times and the bad 

              G            Am G 
You were the best I never had 

    Fmaj7         C              G 
The only chance I wish I had to take 


(**this chord progression repeats for the second half of Chorus**) 

                  Fmaj7          C 
But there was no writing on the wall 

    G                Am G 
No warning signs to follow 

  Fmaj7        C               G 
I know now and I just can't forget 

G                        Fmaj7 
You?re the best I never had 

Fmaj7   C     G Am    G 
Nana    nana na 


(continue with VERSE chord progression) 

Fmaj7    Am 
In this motel 

C              Fmaj7 
  Well passed midnight 

Fmaj7       Am             G 
   When I?m bluer than a bruise 

Fmaj7      Am          C             Fmaj7 
   You come drifting in through the half light 

Fmaj7       Am              G 
     In your funny yellow shoes 

Fmaj7        Am                  C       Fmaj7 
   And I hope that?s you standing at my doorway 

Fmaj7         Am                  G 
   That?s the scratching of your key 

Fmaj7       Am                    C 
  And I hope this song I?m singing 

         Fmaj7 
Someday finds you 

Fmaj7  Am            G 
   Wherever you may be... 



Chorus(same as before) 

            Fmaj7               C 
Through the good times and the bad 

              G            Am G 
You were the best I never had 

    Fmaj7         C              G 
The only chance I wish I had to take 


                  Fmaj7          C 
But there was no writing on the wall 

    G                Am G 
No warning signs to follow 

  Fmaj7        C               G 
I know now and I just can't forget 

G                        Fmaj7 
You?re the best I never had 

OUTRO: 

Fmaj7   C     G 
 Nana    nanana 

 Am     G 
Best I never had 

Fmaj7  Am  G
