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 

 
        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

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 

 
        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 
Yes, the heart is last one to know
