The Best Than I Can Give
Emerson Hart
The Best Than I Can Give
Standard tuning
CAPO 1st fret*
*In the video Emerson has a capo on the 2nd fret,
but I think he plays tuned down 1/2 step
If you're reading this than I'm long gone
Wish I'd had the strength to prove you wrong
But instead I broke your heart of glass
Some things I guess you can't get-
Pre-Chorus:
Back when we started, before the storm came
I gave you sometimes, you needed always
Thought we were fine but you saw it first
Now I can give you the life you deserve so-
Chorus:
Goodbye love, hang on to the long night
There's beauty in the sunrise and you will find that
Goodbye is the hardest thing that I could do
But after all the pain I put you through
It's the best thing I can give
The best thing I can give to you
It's so hard to see it come to this
When the truth is blinded by the wish
Instead of bending I just watched you break
And now it's too late
Pre-chorus:
Back when we started, before the storm came
I gave you sometimes, you needed always
Thought we were fine, but you saw it first
Now I can give you the life you deserve so-
Chorus:
Goodbye love, hang on to the long night
There's beauty in the sunrise and you will find that
Goodbye is the hardest thing that I could do
But after all the pain I put you through
It's the best thing I can give
The best thing I can give to you
We'll always have this after the broken
When all that was given is not forgotten
Chorus:
So goodbye love, hang on to the long night
There's beauty in the sunrise
Goodbye is the hardest thing that I could do
But after all the pain I put you through
It's the best thing I can give
The best thing I can give to you
If you're reading this then I'm long gone
Wish I had the strength to prove you wrong
But instead I broke your heart of glass
Some things I guess you can't get back
