[G][G][Em][C] - [G][G][Em][C] [D]
[Verse - No strums - finger picked arps - see notes - or one rake for each chord at start and very light strums after that] So you're in [G] love with some one else Someone who [Em] burns with in your soul And it [C] looks like I [D] am the last to [G] know
I hear you've [G]never felt so alive So much de [Em] sire beyond control And as [C] usual I [D] am the last to [G] know
[Chorus - Imply riff by playing chords with this rhythm x X x XX] The last to [Em7] know how you're [C/G] feeling The last to [G] know where you [Em7] are The last to [C] know if you're [Am] happy now (play chords straighter now) Or if he's [Bm] treating you like I [Bm] treated you Or if he's [C] cruel [D] I'll be the last to [G] know (riff)
[Verse * = snare] We *spent *summers [G] out beyond the bay And you said these [Em] are such perfect days But if the [C] bomb drops baby I [D] want to be the last to [G] know
But now you're [G]living up behind the hill And though we [Em] share the same city and feel the same sun When your win [C] winter comes [D] I'll be the last to [G] know
[Chorus 2] Always the last to [Em7] know how you're [C/G] feeling The last to [G] know where [Em7] you are The last to [C] know if you're [Am] happy now Or if he's
[Bridge] [Bm] pleaded with you like I [Bm] pleaded with you if you [C] go Ohoh ....Don't [D] let me be the last to [C] know .....Don't [D] let me be the laaaaa [D] aaaaaaaaaast (snare)to [G] know (stop drums)
[Riff] [G] x 2
[Middle Eight] (drums back) [Am] Creations gone [D] crazy (that ain't so bad [Am] ) TV's Gone [G] Mad (that ain't so crazy) [Am] Now you're the only sane thing that I [D] have
[Instrumental - Play B string-3-1-0 over all with some notes on G string for G chords] [G][G][G][G] [D][D]
[Chorus 3] (drums stop) Always the last to (drums back in) [Em7] know how you're [C/G] feeling The last to [G] know where [Em/7] you are The last to [C] know if you're [Am] happy now Or if he's [Bm] cheated on you like I [Bm] cheated on you
[Outro] Oh oh (just bass drum - just arpeggios on guitar) [C] ohohh [D] You were the last to [C] know [D] You were the last to [C] know .. Don't (drums back in) [D] let me be the (this is the half bar) [D] (3 bars) laaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaast to [G] know [G] (drums stop)
