 A#m               G#
Across the desert plains
      F#
Where nothing dares to grow
     A#m             G#
You taught me how to sing
             F#
I taught you everything I know
     D#m                 G#
And thought the night is young
        C#                  F#              D#m
And we don't know if we'll live to see the sun
     G#             C#
The best is yet to come

Chorus:
   G#         F#
I know, you know
                 G#     C#
That we've only just begun
             G#        F#
Through the highs and lows
               G#     A#m
And how can I live without you
        Fm            F#
You're such a part of me
                           C#
And you've always been the one
F#     A#m   F#     G#
Keeping me forever young
                       C#
And the best is yet to come

C#         F#
Hey-ah hey-oh
A#m                  G#
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
C#         F#
Hey-ah hey-oh
A#m                G#             A#m
Take my hand, the best is yet to come

Thinking of the times
How we laughed and cried
I wouldn't change a thing
I couldn't even if I tried
Through the wind and rain
The spirit of our song remains the same
And the best is yet to come

Chorus

Hey ah eh oh
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Take my hand, the best is yet to come

A#m          F#     C#      G# D#m
Oh, can you feel it in the air
A#m           F#       C#    G#  D#m
It's in your heart and everywhere
A#m        B9         F#   A#m  G# F#
We got to keep that dream alive

We cross another road
And face another day
Soldiers never die
They only fade away
How can we grow old
When the soundtrack of our lives is rock and roll
And the best is yet to come

Chorus

Hey ah eh oh
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Take my hand, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Take my hand, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Don't look now, the best is yet to come
Hey ah eh oh
Take my hand, the best is yet to come
