Best Shot

Try to figure out the plucking but it still sounds excellent if strummed throughout.

I haven't gotten around to figuring out the plucking used in the intro and the first
two lines of the last chorus but the verses goes like this:


 (Chord)  (Next chord)
E|----x---|----x---|   
b|---x-x--|---x-x--|    ... and so on for every chord then strum the last chord  
g|--x---x-|--x---x-|        
d|-x-----x|-x-----x|
a|x-------|x-------|
e|--------|--------|

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although all of this is optional since it still sounds fantastic strummed throughout.

C, F, Bb, Bb (x2)


Verse I:

A    A                    Dm          Bb    C
     When you're on your own and you feel lost
C                    A                  Dm         Bb          
When your heart's a mess though you've given your best.

A     A                Dm            Bb              C
     When your sky is dark and the earth is shaking your bed.

Your hope is at its end, you just need one friend.

C                F          Bb                Bb                C 
  The stars fall from above and you're barely holding on my love (holding on my love)
