Last To Die chords
Bruce Springsteen *

C Bm 2x

Em

   C                                   Bm
We took the highway till the road went black
          C                            Bm
We marked Truth or Consequences on our map
        C                       Bm
A voice drifted up from the radio

Em
Some other voice from long ago:
               C
"Who'll be the last to die for a mistake,
    G               D
the last to die for a mistake
      D                       Em
Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break?
              D                     Em
Who'll be the last to die, for a mistake?"

C Bm

    C                        Bm
The kid's asleep in the back seat,
           C                          Bm
we're just counting the miles you and me
         C                                Bm
We don't measure the blood we've drawn anymore;
        Em
we just stack the bodies outside the door
               C
"Who'll be the last to die for a mistake,
    G               D
the last to die for a mistake
      D                       Em
Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break?
              D                     Em
Who'll be the last to die, for a mistake?"

    Am                Em             D
The wise men were all fools; what to do?

C Bm 2x

B7                        Em          C
The sun it sets in flames as the city burns;
B7                    Em           C
another day gone down as the night turns
    G          D          C
And I hold you here in my heart,
          G     D
as things fall apart

  C                            Bm
A downtown window flushed with life;
C                    Bm
faces of the dead at five (faces dead at five)
C                    Bm
Her martyr's silent eyes;
Em
petition the drivers as we pass by:
               C
"Who'll be the last to die for a mistake,
    G               D
the last to die for a mistake
      D                       Em
Whose blood will spill, whose heart will break?
              D
Who'll be the last to die?"
               C
"Who'll be the last to die for a mistake?
    G               D
The last to die for a mistake?
             D                      Em
Darling your tyrants and kings fall to the same fate;
G                 D
strung up at your city gates
              C                    Em
Who'll be the last to die for a mistake?"
