Dsus4        D       Dsus4 D
This is our last goodbye
           Bm            A          Em
I hate to feel the love between us die
         G
But it's over
            D
Just hear this and then I'll go :
     A
you gave me more to live for,
 G                      D
more than you'll ever know.

Well, this is our last embrace
Must I dream and always see your face?
Why can't we overcome this wall?
Baby, maybe it's just because
I didn't know you at all

Chorus:
 A7               G
Kiss me, please, kiss me
             A
But kiss me out of desire, babe,
         G
and not consolation
              A
You know, it makes me so angry
           G
'cause I know that in time
A7                   G
I'll only make you cry,
                      D
this is our last goodbye.

D        Bm   A              G
Did you say "no, this can't happen to me,"
D            Bm           A          G
and did you rush to the phone to call?
             D       Bm          A
Was there a voice unkind in the back
         G
of your mind saying,
  Em Bm Am G
"maybe
            Em
You didn't know him at all
             G
You didn't know him at all,
                   A
oh oh, ya didn't know
Ooohh, didn't know


           D                              Dmaj7
Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
          D7                      D
Burning clues into this heart of mine
          C              D                 C
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory
        D
Of her sighs that, "it's over.
it's over."
