The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me Chords by Gladys Knight And The Pips

The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me chords by Gladys Knight And The Pips

Guitar chords with lyrics

Existing Chords were basically a rehash of the original by Charlie Rich.
Here is my take on what it should be like for the Gladys Knight version.

YOU'RE THE BEST THING
GLADYS KNIGHT
(1973 Key of G)

INTRO:
G Bm Em C Cm Gmaj7

VERSE:
  Gmaj7
I'VE HAD MY SHARE
                  Am7
OF LIFE'S UPS AND DOWNS
 C          D7
BUT FATE'S BEEN KIND
D7                      Gmaj7        G7
THE DOWNS HAVE BEEN A FEW
    C
I GUESS YOU COULD SAY,
D7                      Gmaj7         G7
 THAT I'VE BEEN LUCKY
   Em     Em7       Esus          D9
I GUESS YOU COULD SAY,
