TITLE: The Best of Times
Lyrics and Chords


Tonight's the night we'll make history
Honey, you and I
'Cause I'll take any risk
To tie back the hands of time
And stay with you here tonight

/ Am7 - Dsus2 Dm / G F C - / Fmaj7 - / E - F - / 
   / G - Am Amsus4 Am Amsus2 Am Amsus4 Am FG / 

I know you feel these are the worst of times
I do believe it's true
When people lock their doors and hide inside
Rumor has it, it's the end of Paradise
But I know if the world just passed us by
Baby, I know, I wouldn't have to cry, no, no

/ Am7 - Dsus2 Dm / G F C - / Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 G / Fmaj7 G Am E / 
   / Am Am/maj7 Am7 Am / F - Dm G / 

The best of times are when I'm alone with you
Some rain, some shine, we'll make this a world for two
Our memories of yesterday will last a lifetime
We'll take the best, forget the rest and someday we'll find
These are the best of times
These are the best of times

/ C Cmaj7 F - C Cmaj7 Am G / / F Em Dm G - / F Em Dm FEm Dm G /
   / C CG F - / C CG F E / 

The headlines read these are the worst of times
I do believe it's true
I feel so helpless like a boat against the tide
I wish the summer wind could bring back Paradise
But I know if the world turned upside down
Baby I know you'd always be around, my, my

/ As second verse /

The best of times are when I'm alone with you
Some rain, some shine, we'll this a world for two
    When I'm alone with you
The best of times
    Everything's alright
Are when I'm alone with you
    When I'm alone with you
Some rain, some shine
    You brighten up the night
We'll make this a world for two
    Said when I'm alone with you
The best of times
{Fade}
