The Last Song

Elton John


Tom: C

C             Am
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           C    Am7         G/B
 Just one more whisper  of a voice Unheard
C             Am
 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           C    Am7         G/B
I need your gentle hands  to keep me calm
           C
 'cause  I never thought  I'd lose  
   G/B
I only thought I'd win 
  Am                                        Em/G 
I never dreamed  I'd feel  this fire  beneath my   skin
               F
I can't believe you love me 
                C              Am
I never thought  you'd come 
                   C/G 
I guess I misjudeaged  love  
      F/G        C/G    G   C
Between  a father and his son  
Bridge:     C   Am    F  G 
C                 Am
Things we never said come together
                F            C
 The hidden truth no longer haunt  me
Dm                         Am
Tonight  we touched  on the things that were never spoken 
        G              C     Am7     G/B
That kind of understanding sets  me free
