Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Despair, regret, and tenderness

 Is what I feel for you

 I loved you from the very start

What else could I do

You read my mind, you made me cry

Time stood still

And now I know the reasons why

Time stood still

Maybe you're the next best thing to happen

All the things we might have been

 A flame becomes a fading light

 That burns inside my heart

 And like a castle in the sand

 It had to fall apart

 You made me laugh, you gave me hope

It's over now

Our happiness went up in smoke

It's over now

Maybe you're the next best thing to happen

All the things we might have been

Maybe you're the next best thing to happen

All the things we might have been

Solo

x2

Maybe you're the next best thing to happen

All the things we might have been

Maybe you're the next best thing to happen

All the things we might have been
