F#7                   B
Let me tell you something
F#7                     B
In the darkness of the room
F#7                           B
I'm leaning back against the wall
F#7                    B
Try to walk on broken glass
Dm                           E
A cut so deep just hurts so bad
F#7                  B
I remember what you said
F#7                           B
Tears were rolling down your face
F#7                            B
And after all's been said and done
Dm                     E
You're a woman, I'm a man
G                           F#
Could I turn back the time again

Chorus:
           Bm     Em
You must know by now
         A       Bm
I won't let you down
    D    Em      F#       B
Whatever comes along the way
Don't you agree that one thing is true?
I'm not the best, but the best for you

And I step outside the door
(step outside the door)
Blinded by a million lights
In the valley of the fools
(in the valley of the fools)
Another day went by so fast
What in the world will ever last

Chorus

G                                 F#
There's nothing else that we have got
                        D
But our love is like a rock
                         E
Standing up against the tide

There's nothing else that we have got
But our love is like a rock
Standing up against the tide

Chorus - x2

Don't you agree that one thing is true
I'm not the best, but the best for you
I'm not the best, but the best for you
I'm not the best, but the best for you
