Its For The Best

       C          Em        D    
And it takes more time than I've 
     G
ever had
            C          Em
Drains the life from me
           D        G
Makes me want to forget
       C       Em           D    
As young as I was, I felt older 
      G
back then
      C       Em      D     
More disciplined, stronger and 
     G
certain


[Chorus: John Nolan & Nate Ruess]
    C                       
But I was scared to death of 
    Em
eternity
       D
I was saved by grace
  G
But destroyed by naivety

   C   Em     D  G
And I lied to myself
   C    Em      D        G
And said it was for the best


[Verse 2: John Nolan]
          C        Em         
So now faith is replaced with a 
   D        G
logic so cold
           C          Em
I've disregarded what I was
    D         G
Now that I'm older
       C         Em          D   
And I know much more than I did 
      G
back then
        C         Em
But the more I learn
       D              G
The more I can't understand


[Chorus: John Nolan & Nate Ruess]
    C                            
And I've become content with this 
    Em
life that I lead
          D                     
Where I drink too much and don't 
    G
believe in much of anything
    C    Em     D    G
And I lied to myself
      C    Em     D      G
And said "it's for the best."


[Outro: Nate Ruess]
C                         Em
We're moving forward, but holding 
ourselves back
    D                G
And we're waiting on something that 
will never come
