Tom: G |G | |Em | |Am7 | |D | | [Verse 1] G Once bitten and twice shy Em I keep my distance but you still catch my eye Am Tell me baby do you recognize me D Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me [Verse 2] G "Merry Christmas!" I wrapped it up and sent it Em With a note saying: "I love you!", I meant it Am Now I know what a fool I've been D But if you kissed me now, I know you'd fool me again [Chorus] G Last Christmas I gave you my heart Em But the very next day you gave it away Am7 This year to save me from tears D I'll give it to someone special [Chorus] G Last Christmas I gave you my heart Em But the very next day you gave it away Am7 This year to save me from tears D I'll give it to someone special [Interlude] |G | |Em | |Am7 | |D | | [Verse 3] G Crowded room, friends with tired eyes Em I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice Am My God, I thought you were someone to rely on D Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on [Verse 4] G A face on a lover with a fire in his heart Em A man undercover but you tore him apart Am Ooh-hoo.. D Now I've found a real love, you'll never fool me again [Chorus] G Last Christmas I gave you my heart Em But the very next day you gave it away Am7 This year to save me from tears D I'll give it to someone special [Chorus] G Last Christmas I gave you my heart Em But the very next day you gave it away Am7 This year to save me from tears D I'll give it to someone special [Interlude] |G | |Em | |Am7 | |D | | [Verse 5] G A face on a lover with a fire in his heart Em A man undercover but you tore him apart Am Oooh-oo, maybe next year D I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone special (fade out with verse 5)
