IS THE BETTER PART OVER - Willie Nelson
D MajorD
Is the better part over?
E MajorE A augmentedA
Has the ragin' river turned into a stream?
E MajorE
Is the better part over?
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
D MajorD
And after thinkin' it over
E MajorE A augmentedA
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
G+G D MajorD E MajorE D MajorD BB
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
BB
If the better part's over
D MajorD
Why hang around
E MajorE
For an endin' that's laden with sorrow?
E MajorE
We've both been around
E MajorE E7E7 A augmentedA
We've both seen that movie before
D MajorD
And as much as I love you
E MajorE
I can't live while fearin' tomorrow
If the better part's over
E MajorE E7E7 A augmentedA
Then why should we try anymore?
D MajorD
Is the better part over?
E MajorE A augmentedA
Has the ragin' river turned into a stream?
E MajorE
Is the better part over?
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA
Are we down to not quite sayin' what we mean?
D MajorD
And after thinkin' it over
E MajorE A augmentedA
Wouldn't you rather have the endin' nice and clean
G+G D MajorD E MajorE D MajorD BB
Where love remains in all the closing scenes?
BB
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 augmentedA and on
the 3th fret of the e string during the D MajorD sometimes.
