The Starting Line: Best Of Me (acoustic)
Tabbed by Fatty McButterpants

this should be right, but everyone makes mistakes. listen to the
song for rhythm. ’feeling that we won’t, feeling that we
cant, we’re not ready to give up’ is different than the usual
chorus part, i just make it up as i go along and end that part
with x02200.


1) INTRO/CHORUS

tell me what you thought...
    Play twice         2nd time end with
E|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|--0--
B|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|--0--
G|--1--2--4--4--2--2--4--4--|--2--
D|--2--2--4--2--2--2--2--4--|--2--
A|--2--0--2--4--0--0--4--2--|--0--
E|--0--x--x--x--x--x--x--x--|--x--

play twice more

2) 1ST VERSE and 2ND VERSE
 1ST play once then lyrics begin at 6 0 0 part
 2ND the words come right on the third time you play it

E|---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0-
B|--0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0--
G|-9---9---8---8---6---6---4---4---
D|---------------------------------
A|---------------------------------
E|---------------------------------

this is a second and third guitar part to go
over the verses, you can do without it but if
you have a couple of guitarists it sounds good

E|----0----0----0----0---0---0---0---0-|------------
B|---0----0----0----0---0---0---0---0--|---9---10-9-
G|-13---13---11---11---9---9---8---8---|-9---9------
D|-------------------------------------|------------
A|-------------------------------------|------------
E|-------------------------------------|------------

but you can play the 13 and 9, 8
and 11 etc. part together this way
instead of having separate guitars

E|---0---0---0---0-
B|--9---7---5---4--
G|-9---8---6---4---
D|-----------------

LYRICS:
1) tell me what you thought about
   when you were gone and so alone
   the worst is over
   you can have the best of me
   we got older but we’re still young
   we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

1) twice

2) here we lay again
   on two seperate beds
   riding phone lines
3) to hear that familiar voice
   and pictures brought from memory
2) we reflect on miscomunication
   and misunderstandings
3) and missing each other two
   much too without you, let go

2)

4) we turn our music down
   and we whisper
   say what your thinking right now
 
1) tell me what you thought about
   when you were gone and so alone
   the worst is over
   you can have the best of me
   we got older but we’re still young
   we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

2) twice

2) jumping to conclusions
   made me fall away from you
3) i’m so glad that the truth
   has brought back together me and you

2)

4) we’re sitting on the ground
   and we whisper
   say what your thinking outloud

1) tell me what you thought about
   when you were gone and so alone
   the worst is over
   you can have the best of me
   we got older but we’re still young
   we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up

1) twice

5) we turn our music down
   and we whisper
   we’re sitting on the ground
   and we whisper
   we turn our music down
   we’re sitting on the ground
   and next time i’m in town
   we will kiss girl
   we will kiss girl

1) tell me what you thought about
   when you were gone and so alone
   the worst is over
   you can have the best of me
   we got older but we’re still young
   we never grew out of this feeling that we wont
   feeling that we cant, we’re not ready to give up

1) we got older but we’re still young
   we never grew out of this feeling that we wont give up
