The Last Time
View chords used in this chart
Capo 1
D
Like an old abandoned Ferris wheel
G
Time for me is standin? still
G
And it's you and me in mid July
D
underneath the midway lights
D
And all our friends are standin there
G
so I was actin like i didn't care
G
when you put your arms around my neck
D
and i barely even kissed you back
[Refrão] D
But if I?d have known it was the last time
Em
I'd have held on a little longer
G
And let that moment linger
G/F# A
And never let your fingers slip away from mine
D
If I?d known there'd never be another day
Em
I'd have watched you as you walked away
G
And kept you in my eyes
G/F# Em
Till you were out of sight if I
A D
If I?d have known it was the last time
Now the midway lights have all shut down
And the grass has grown up all around
And it's an empty field across the tracks
But I can't keep from comin back
It was just another summer night
A carousel and a coaster ride
And that silly fight that we got in
Didn't seem so important then
Chorus
Chorus 2:
And if I?d have known then what I know now
I'd never let you disappear into the crowd
Or turn away the way I did with so much left unsaid if I
If I?d have known it was the last time
