The Academic - My Very Best chords
Start Jamming...
[E] Close your eyes for approximately 11 seconds.
Think about romance and love.
You should be married in 6 months or a little more.
[Em]
[E] Life would be very short, very empty not to be in love.
[A] How would [D] I know it's love?
That's a saucy question though.
If you could see it in their face, no.
That butterfly kind of feeling.
If it really happened,
with my little girl here beside me,
I'd be devastated.
[A] I'm waiting for [F#m] you, [E] just like you're waiting for me.
[A] I'm willing [Bm] to learn, I'm just waiting to [E] see.
I'm waiting for [A] you.
Crying [F#m] hard, I'll [D] be a skimming stone.
[A] From being [F#m] alive to living [Dm] alone.
When [A] it [E] gets brighter,
[B]
and [F#] the birds are coming to let you [E] know.
When [B] it gets brighter,
and [F#] you're hiding under your [E] pillow.
Oh, I got [A] the feeling,
I can't help you right now.
[F#m] Oh, I got [A] the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
[F#m] Oh, I got [A] the feeling,
I can't help you right now.
[F#m] Oh, I got [A] the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
He [D] has to be like [F#m] confident with [D] himself.
He has to be a little bit smart.
He was handsome.
[A] I'd hear that.
Yesterday [F#m] was easy.
[D] Yesterday was nice.
[A] You're gonna let [F#m] an assumption ruin [A] your day.
You go from waiting for something [F#m] to happen,
[D] to outer at least a little famine.
[A] You don't raise [F#m] your hand if you got nothing [D] to say.
When [A] it [B] gets brighter,
[F#] and the birds are coming to let you [E] know.
Oh, I got the [A] feeling,
I can't help you right now.
Oh, I got the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
[F#m] Oh, I got the [D] feeling,
[A] I can't help you right now.
[F#m] Oh, I got [A] the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
He got married seven [D] years ago.
[A] What year?
Fifty-three years.
Three lives then.
When it [B] gets brighter,
[F#] and the birds are coming to let [E] you know.
When it [B] gets brighter,
and [F#m] you're hiding under your [E] pillow.
[A] Oh, I [D] got the feeling,
[A] I can't help you right now.
[F#m] Oh, I [A] got the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
[F#m] Oh, I [D] got the feeling,
[A] I can't help you right now.
[F#m] Oh, I [A] got the feeling,
and I can't give you my very best.
My very best.
[G] [C] [N]
Hello.
What age woman would you like to meet, Seamus?
You know, you said you wanted a fairly stout woman.
Yeah, they'd be all ages and sizes.
Listen, okay, I'll see you.
