The Best is Yet to Come
Clifford T Ward

Capo: Fret 4
Timing: 4/4

Recorded by Clifford T Ward as a single in 1981 and released on the album Both of 
Us in 1984. It was originally accompanied by piano but works well on guitar with a 
finger picking style.

The C chord on the first line of each verse can be enhanced by picking a high G 
(1st string 3rd fret) on the words 'do' and 'go' and again as it passes to the F 
chord. See complete chord below.

The Gsus4 chord is optional but may be played as a passing chord to lead into the 
Dm chord in the next line.
