The last one to know

C F
1. I didn't see the fire burn
to ashes.
C F
I couldn't feel the winds of
change.
Em F
I was lost inside the passion,
Em G
blinded
by the memory of a flame.
C F
2. Guess I should have felt it when you touched
me,
C F
should
have seen it in your eyes.
Em F
But I believe you really loved
me.
Em G
Why can't I believe you said
goodbye.
C F C G
Oh, why is the last one to know, the first one to cry and the last to
let go?
C F
Em G
Oh, why is the one left behind the one left alone with no one to hold
C
the last one to know ? + C - F - C - G

3. It would be easier to face
the morning
C F
if
you were holding me tonight.
Em F
But you left me without a
warning
Em G
holding
on to a heartache while she's holding you tight.
