guitar chords lyrics
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

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

And they were wrong about us

We showed them not to doubt us

Yeah what could ever take that?

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

They wouldn't be so sad

It was the best I ever had
