State Of Shock
Best I Ever Had
Life, Love & Lies
Sept, 20, 2008

This is my take on the song. It is meant for one guitar, preferably acoustic. I have 
the chords with no strumming pattern. The chorus is pretty straight forward and you can 
your own strumming pattern for the verse/bridge.
I Didn't add an intro.
 Thanks

VERSE 1:

D      A               B5
Now I know I messed up bad
             G
You were the best I ever had
D          A                B5
I let you down in the worst way
             G
It hurts me every single day

        G               D
Now I'm here to say I'm sorry
