5* 5* 6 6 -5 5* -5 6 6
I’ve had my share of life’s ups and downs
5* -5 6 6
But fate’s been kind,
6 -7 7* 6 5*
the downs have been few
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -6* 7* -8 -7 6
I guess you could say that I’ve been luck-y
-7 -7 -7 -7 -6* -7
And I guess you could say
-7 -7 -6* 7* -7 -8
it’s all be-cause of you
8* 8* -7 8* 8* 8* -7 8* -8 -8 -7 -6*
If an-y-one should ev-er write my life sto-ry
-6* -7 -7 -7 7* 7* 6 -6* 6
For what-ev-er rea-son there might be
-5 6 -6* -6* -6*
you’d be there be-tween
-7 7* 7* -8 -7 -7 6
each line of pain and glo-ry
5* -5 5* -5 -5
‘Cause you’re the best thing
-5 -5 5* -5 -5 6 5*
that ev-er hap-pened to me
-5 5* -5 -5
you’re the best thing
-5 -5 5* -5 5* -4 -3
that ev-er hap-pened to me
8* 8* 8* 6 6
Lord, there have been times
-5 5* -5 6 6
when the times were hard
5* -5 6 6 6 -77* 7* 7* 5*
But al-ways some-how I made it through
-7 -7 8* 8* 8* -8
But for ev-‘ry mo-ment
-6* 7* -8 -7 6
that I’ve spent hurt-ing
-7 -7 -7 -7 -7 -7 7* -7 -8
There was a mo-ment spent lov-ing you
8* 8* -7 8* 8* 8* -7 8* -8 -8 -7 -6*
If an-y-one should ev-er write my life sto-ry
-6* -7 -7 -7 7* 7* 6 -6* 6
For what-ev-er rea-son there might be
-5 6 -6* -6* -6*
you’d be there be-tween
-7 7* 7* -8 -7 -7 6
each line of pain and glo-ry
5* -5 5* -5 -5
‘Cause you’re the best thing
-5 -5 5* -5 -5 6 5*
that ev-er hap-pened to me
-5 5* -5 -5
you’re the best thing
-5 -5 5* -5 5* -4 -3
that ev-er hap-pened to me
