richard cortez - the next best thing

i met you through a friend
that's
the beginning of the end
of
every story
i've ever told about love
but you're different
you hold me through the night
but you don't say a word
and that's alright
cause you make me breakfast
french toast and scrambled eggs
and you fix my coffee
then you smoke your cigarette

and this isn't love
but it's the next best thing
and i just can't get enough
and i know now
yeah, i know now
just how happy i could be
being free
being free

our sex is like a song
and i play it on repeat
and all day i sing along
and tap my foot to the beat
cause you keep me on my toes
i keep you satisfied
where we're headed no one knows
we're just along for the ride
so let it right, yeah let it ride

but this isn't love
but it's the next best thing
and i just can't get enough
and i know now
yeah, i know now
just how happy i can be
being free
being free

what about all those things i said i wanted
what about all that wasted time
i've been chasing boys for so long
and writing all those unrequited love songs
without reason
without rhyme

i met you through a friend
that's
the beginning of the end
that's the beginning of the end
that's the beginning of
the end

just drop the a string down to a g. other than that - try to follow my fingers i guess. i've never written a tab before. the chorus has what would appear to be a g chord in it. haha. ugh, wow. i'm an idiot. glad you liked the song!!! -rec
