"The best thing you never had"
From the album "Letters (2004)"
Tabbed by Etni3s.
Tuning: DADGAD
Comment:
Big shout out to Balta for his live version tab. Without it I would have
never gotten this right. Well.. I think it's fair to say that this is
pretty much a re-write of his tab. This is the album version by the way.
Have fun! Now grab your guitar and rock out!
Update note:
Changed it to DADGAD tuning and changed the chords a bit.

Chords
[D] [Dmaj7] [G] [E5] [F#5] [G5] [G#5][A5]
Hell[D]o, how ya doin'
What's [Dmaj7]it like to ruin all [G]my self esteem?
Let me blow off some steam
For [D]five years I waited so [Dmaj7]why am I jaded
To ge[G]t back at you? What makes it cool when
You [G]act like [D]nothing ever happened
I [G]feel like [D]I should feel bad
But I [G]can't like
[D]Someone who thought They're the [E5]only one that mattered
I [F#5]hope that you're flattered
cause [G5]you broke this down
The [A5]best thing that you never [D]had[Dmaj7][G]
And it [D]seems like I'm lost
Somehow [Dmaj7]my heart got lost
On the [G]way to my head and my brain cells are dead
and the [D]craziness shows
now [Dmaj7]I start to go when the [G]green turns to red
and I should be dead when
You [G]act like [D]nothing ever happened
I [G]feel like [D]I should feel bad
But I [G]can't like
[D]Someone who thought They're the [E5]only one that mattered
While m[F#5]y heart got shattered
like [G5]romantic roadkill
my [F#5]heart is all splattered
your [E5]ego got fatter
I [F#5]hope that you're flattered
cause [G5]you broke this down
The [A5]best thing that you never [D]had[Dmaj7][G]
Like the [E5]toilet seat never got lifted
And I [D]pissed on your confidence
When you weren't around
[E5]How could that be?
[F#5]Don't turn this around
[G5]You were the one who
[A5]Drove my ass [G5]right to the [F#5]ground[E5]
When you [G]act like [D]nothing ever happened
I [G]feel like [D]I should feel bad
But I [G]can't like
[D]Someone who thought they're the [E5]only one that mattered
While [F#5]my heart got shattered
like [G5]romantic roadkill
my [F#5]heart is all splattered
your [E5]ego got fatter
I [F#5]hope that you're flattered
cause [G5]you broke this down, [G#5]you broke this down
The [A5]best thing, the best thing, the best thing... you never [D]had[Dmaj7][G]
