The Best I Ever Had Chords

(ver. 1)
The Swellers
Intro
A                            E
It was a young and angry summer
                           B
A song that changed my mind
                     C#m
I heard it on the radio
A                            E
And if everyone else heard this
                  B
They wouldn't be so sad
                   C#m
It was the best I ever had
                               A E B C#m x2
It was the best I ever had

Verse 1
A               E
I remember April '94
             B
September '96
                      C#m 
And every day of '99 (all of '99)
A                                E                   
Whether I waited for those records
                   B
Or helped Seattle cry
                 C#m
It was the best I ever had

And I know we'll never die

Pre-Chorus
A    B             C#m
Yeah we were right about it
A    B                C#m
We'd be lost without it
A    B                  C#m
Yeah what could ever take that?

Chorus
E      B     C#m  
I miss it too
E              B           C#m     
And I miss the songs we knew
           C#m        B
And if I could go back
             F#
I'd do it all again
                                          
                 A      B      A     B 
It was the best I ever had

Verse 2
A                                         E
While the world was waking up and
                   B
Putting on their suits
                       C#m
I was planning my escape
A                                 E
And when I had that conversation
                       B
With my mom and dad
                             C#m
I said I'm never looking back

It was the best I ever had

Pre-Chorus
A    B                      C#m 
And they were wrong about us
A   B                          C#m
We showed them not to doubt us 
A    B                         C#m
Yeah what could ever take that?

Chorus

Bridge
C#m  B  A  F#                       C#m  B  to Verse 3
            I'd do it all again

Verse 3
A                          E
I've been everywhere now
                     B
Searching far and wide
                        C#m  
 But she was down the street
A                              E
She looked just like an angel
                   B
Flying down to me
                  C#m
But I was underground

Where the devil comes to feed






A                           E
And everything felt so right
                           B
I could show it to do wrong
                        C#m
But she taught me everything
A                                   E
And I don't know where she is now
                B
But I'll never forget
                           C#m
She was the best I ever had
                             A  E  B 
Or ever will again
C#m                        A  E  B  C#m
The best I ever had

Outro
A                            E
And if everyone else heard this
                         B
They wouldn't be so sad
                        C#m           
It was the best I ever had

End on A
