Intro: G C D G D

I'm so [G]glad to have you [C]back within these [G]arms of mine
I can finally go to [C]sleep and get some [D]rest
Never [G]once did I [C]think of finding [G]someone new
'Cause there's nothing better, [C]once you've [D]had the [G]best

You're the [G]very thing they [C]sing about in [G]love songs
And one mistake don't [C]mean you've failed the [D]test
As I [G]lay beside you [C]softly sleeping [G]this I know,
There's nothing better, [C]once you've [D]had the [G]best

With[C]in your arms, I've had the best
And I [G]think the world should know
[C]I don't care what you've said or done
I'll [Am]always love you [D]so
You've got more [G]love in your little [C]finger, than [G]all the rest
And there's nothing better, [C]once you've [D]had the [G]best

Instrumental (Chords same as first verse)

With[C]in your arms, I've had the best
And I [G]think the world should know
[C]I don't care what you've said or done
I'll [Am]always love you [D]so
You've got more [G]love in your little [C]finger, than [G]all the rest
And there's nothing better, [C]once you've [D]had the [G]best

No there's nothing better, [C]once you've [D]had the [G]best
