The Last Time chords by Lee Ann Womack

Lee Ann Womack - The Last Time


CAPO: 3rd Fret



INTRO: C    F  C   G  C


Like an old abandoned Ferris wheel
F
Time for me is standing still

And it's you and me in mid July
C

Underneath the midway lights



And all our friends are standing there
         F
So I was acting like I didn't care

When you put your arms around my neck
      C
And I barely even kissed you back


CHORUS:

But if I'd have known it was the last time
           Dm
I'd a held on a little longer
                    F
And let that moment linger
                   C             G
And never let your fingers slip away from mine
                           C
If I'd known there'd never be another day
                          Dm
I'd have watched you as you walked away
                   F
And kept you in my eyes
                     C         Dm   G
'Til you were out of sight, if I
                             C
If I'd have known it was the last time



Now the midway lights have all shut down
        F
And the grass has grown up all around

It's an empty field across the tracks
        C
Oh, but I can't keep from coming back



It was just another summer night
  F
A carousel and a coaster ride

And that silly fight that we got in
C
Didn't seem so important then


CHORUS:

But if I'd have known it was the last time
           Dm
I'd a held on a little longer
                    F
And let that moment linger
                   C             G
And never let your fingers slip away from mine
                                C
If I'd have known there'd never be another day
                          Dm
I'd have watched you as you walked away
                   F
And kept you in my eyes
                     C         Dm   G
'Til you were out of sight, if I
                             C          G  C
If I'd have known it was the last time


CHORUS 2:

And if I'd known then what I know now
                       Dm
I'd never let you disappear into the crowd
                       F
Or turn away the way I did
                   C         Dm   G
With so much left unsaid, if I
                        C                    G  C
