The Best Day

Taylor Swift

G Em C D (2x)

I'm five years old
It's getting cold, got my big coat on
I hear your laugh
And look up at smilin at you, I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch
And the tractor rides, Look now, the sky is gold
I hug your legs
And fall asleep on the way home

C       D                G            *      Em
I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
C          D                    G     *      Em
But I know you're not scared of anything at all
C             D                     G      *     Em
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you today

I'm 13 now
And don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home crying
and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive
Until we find a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop
Til Ive forgotten all their names

C       D               G      *    Em
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
C       D                     G    *     Em
But I know I'm laughin on the car ride home with you
C              D            G     *    Em
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with you today

I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out, he's better than I am...

I grew up in a pretty house and I had space to run
And I had the best days with you

There is a video
I found from back when I was three
You set up a paint set
in the kitchen and you're talkin to me
It's the age of princesses
and pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
My Daddy's smart
And you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world

C     D                    G        *           Em
Now I know why the all the trees change in the fall
C       D              G          *        Em
I know you were on my side even when I was wrong
C                   D                          G    *           Em
And I love you for giving me your eyes, staying back and watching me shine

C             D                   G           *       Em
And I didn't know if you knew, so I'm takin this chance to say
I had the best day with you today
