Willie Hugh Nelson (born April 29, 1933) is an American musician, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed in the late 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- IS THE BETTER PART OVER - Willie Nelson ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Themanatease E-mail: [email protected]
Tuning: standard
D Is the better part over? EA Has the ragin' river turned into a stream? E Is the better part over? DEA Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
D And after thinkin' it over EA Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean GDEDB Where love remains in all the closing scenes? B If the better part's over
D Why hang around E For an endin' that's laden with sorrow? E We've both been around EE7A We've both seen that movie before
D And as much as I love you E I can't live while fearin' tomorrow
If the better part's over EE7A Then why should we try anymore?
D Is the better part over? EA Has the ragin' river turned into a stream? E Is the better part over? DEA Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
D And after thinkin' it over EA Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean GDEDB Where love remains in all the closing scenes? B If the better part's over
Note: you can add the extra 'touch' to this song by hammering your pinkie on the 3th fret of the b string during the A and on the 3th fret of the e string during the D sometimes. :) have fun playing!
