I met a man late downtown
The rain was softly falling down
Over me
He said "I believe in Jesus Christ
But I still don't know my wrongs and my rights
Bbm
In this lonely life.
Eb
This lonely life's
Ab
Not worth living at all
C#
Not worth living at all"
Bbm
So I gave him my last cigarette
Eb
And said
E Fm F# Gm Ab
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you, yet"
Ab
I've had my friends and had my foes
I've cut some corners and God only knows
I've tried my best
(I tried my best)
I've loved and lost and paid the cost
I faced my fears but still I'm lost
PRE-CHORUS
Bbm
In this lonely night
Eb
This lonely night
Ab
When I went home without you
C#
Oh I went home without you
CHORUS
Bbm
Then I rang you on the telephone
Eb
And left a message at the tone
E Fm F# Gm Ab
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you yet!"
E Fm F# Gm Ab
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you yet!"

Ab
When I got home and sat alone
The darkness really set the tone
Over me
I know, I know, it's hard to tell
The things I find when I feel like hell
PRE-CHORUS
Bbm
In this lonely light
Eb
This lonely light
Ab
Is fading without you
C#
Always fading without you
CHORUS
Bbm
And so I rang you on the telephone
Eb
And left a message at the tone
E Fm F# Gm Ab
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you yet!"
E Fm F# Gm Ab
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you yet!"
E Fm F#
I said "This world ain't seen the best of you
E Fm F#
World ain't seen the best of you
E Fm F# Gm Abm
World ain't seen the best of you yet!"
