♫ Verse 1:
  C
I finally quit smoking cigarettes
      C                                    Am
And I don’t go downtown drinking till it’s dawn
         G                                      C
The best parts of you are here but you’re still gone
    C
And lord I’ve been trying to smile like you told me
C                                       Am
Laugh like the old me, it comes out all wrong
         G                                      C
The best parts of you are here but you’re still gone
    C
And I still tie that double knot
    C                                      Am
The one you taught that gets caught on the banks
         G                                   C
The best parts of you are here but you still ain’t

         G                                      C
The best parts of you are here but you’re still gone

♫ Verse 1:
             Am
I heard your father got sick of Long Island
          G
I’ve been trying like hell to call
   C                                        F
My mind aint well and I just can’t tell you why
Am
I heard they shut the old bar
        G
We’d go to when we needed rest
     C                                F
We’d always stay out too late Tuesday nights

♫ Verse 2:
         Am
You said I was the perfect gentleman
            G
You used to hold me by my gentle hands
      C                                   F
These ain't the hopefuls hands you held before
Am
And I’ve been drinking so much lately
   G
It seems a damn double blade
             C                                     F
Cuz when I’m drunk I dream you’re dancing down the shore

♫ Interlude:
Am G C F
