Blue Rodeo - Last To Know
Intro - C
(verse 1)
[G]What took so long to build took a m[F]oment to slip a[C]way,
[G]You could barely hide the satis[F]faction on your fa[C]ce,
[Am]Time takes another day,
[F]Changes y[Fsus]ou in[F] subtle ways,
[Am]Lifts you up then slowly lets you [F]go,
(verse 2)
[G]Sitting there across the room your smile [F]looks like a thr[C]eat,
[G]Living underneath the heel of [F]what you might do ne[C]xt,
[Am]Memory works in strange ways,
[F]Cuts you down[Fsus] and makes[F] you pay,
[Am]One day you'll be [Em7]walking fine,
The next [F]day lightning [G]hits you from behind,
(chorus)
[Cadd9]One heart, [G]one love,[F] two people who can't rise above,
[Cadd9]Each time [G]we fall,[F] don't know what I was thinking of,
And[Cadd9] don't say it's s[F]o, [Cadd9]Don't say it's s[F]o,
[Cadd9]Oh let me be t[G]he last to k[F]now,
(verse 3)
Seems we move backwards now the further on we walk,
It's hard to find a single line through all our double talk,
Home late and drunk again,
Close the door, shut out the rain,
One more day no damage done,
My spirits falling, sinking like the sun
(chorus)
[Cadd9]One heart, [G]one love,[F] two people who can't rise above,
[Cadd9]Each time [G]we fall,[F] don't know what I was thinking of,
And[Cadd9] don't say it's s[F]o, [Cadd9]Don't say it's s[F]o,
[Cadd9]Oh let me be t[G]he last to k[F]now,)

(verse 4)
Standing at your doorway I can hear your voice inside,
Telling all your friends what you're gonna say to me tonight,
Oh write me a better part,
Find the words to break your heart,
Keep you on your knees forever,
Funny how my tongue gets tied together,
(chorus)
[Cadd9]One heart, [G]one love,[F] two people who can't rise above,
[Cadd9]Each time [G]we fall,[F] don't know what I was thinking of,
