The last song (1992)
C - Am - F - G - C
C Am
1. Yesterday you came to lift me up,
F C
as
light as straw and brittle as a bird,
Dm Am
today
I weigh less than a shadow on the wall,
G G7
just
one more whisper of a voice unheard.
C Am
2. Tomorrow leave the windows open,
F C
as
fear grows, please hold me in your arms.
Dm
Am
Won‘t you help me if you can,
to shake this anger ?
G G7
I need your gentle hands to
keep me calm.
C G
‘Cause I never thought I‘d lose, I only thought I‘d win,
Am Em
I never dreamed I‘d feel this fire beneath my skin.
F C
- Am
I can‘t believe you love me, I never thought you‘d come,
C F G
C
I guess I misjudged love between a father and his son.
+ C - Am - F - G
C Am
3. Things we never said come together,
F C
the
hidden truth no longer haunting me.
Dm
Am
Tonight we touched on the
things that were never spoken,
G G7
that
kind of understanding sets me free.
C G
‘Cause I never thought I‘d lose, I only thought I‘d win,
Am Em
I never dreamed I‘d feel this fire beneath my skin.
F C - Am
I can‘t believe you love me, I never thought you‘d come,
C F G C
I guess I misjudged love between a father and his son.
