My Heart Was The Last One To Know chords by Kris Kristofferson

My Heart was the Last One to Know
From the album Feeling Mortal

[Intro]
F Em Dm C

[Verse 1]
        C                       F         C
Taking time you got by these defenses of mine
                                      G
Though I tried not to let you slip through
          C                          F          C
And when you worked your way to the back of my mind
        G                       C
It was too late to stop loving you

[Chorus]
        F                        C
For my eyes grew accustomed to looking at you
                               D           G
And my arms found a body they hungered to hold
         C                    F           C
And the rest of my senses surrendered to you
                      G            C
But my heart was the last one to know

[Interlude]
A

[Verse 2]
         D                          G          D
Then my eyes saw the warnings they couldn't believe
                                    A
And my lips felt your kiss growing cold
        D                          G              D
And my ears heard the stories but kept them from me
                     A            D
So my heart was the last one to know

[Chorus]
        G                             D
Now my eyes finally learned to stop looking for you
                               E         A
And my arms slowly turned to another to hold
            D                            G           D
They could sense you were something too good to be true
                      A            D
But my heart was the last one to know

[CODA]
                   A            G   D
