Last Christmas chords



Last Christmas  


  C                                    

Last Christmas I gave you my heart,

             Am

but the very next day you gave it away,

Dm          

this year to save me from tears,

       G

I'll give it to someone special.  (2x)



  C                              ^

1.   Once bitten and twice shy,

Am                                      ^     ^  

    I keep my distance, but you still catch my eye,

Dm                      \

    Tell me baby, do you recognize me?

 G                            \            \

    Well, it's been a year,  it doesn't surprise me.

 C    

    (Happy Christmas) I wrapped it up and sent it,

   Am                           \                        \

    with a note saying, "I love you" , I meant it,

     Dm  

    now I know what a fool I've been,

                      G              \                            \

    but-if-you-kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again.



+ CHORUS



  C           ^                                     ^

2.   A crowded room, friends with tired eyes,

Am      ^                                      

    I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice.

Dm                  \                         \                        

    My God I thought you were someone to rely on.

     G

    Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on.

         C                                \               \

    A face on a lover with a fire-in-his-heart

       Am                                                            Dm    

    a man under cover but you tore  - me -  ap..art, uhu

                     G                                            \

    Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again.



+ CHORUS



          C

3. A face on a lover with a fire in his heart,

       Am

    a man under cover but you tore him apart

 Dm                                 G

    maybe next year,  I'll give it to someone,

                                          C

    I'll give it to someone special.
