 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
