Chris De Burgh - Last Night
CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: F Am F Am F Am F
Am Am7 Aadd9
Last night I was walking through the harbour,
F G Am
Where the fishing boats are lying on the shore,
Em F G
The news had travelled fast and everyone went to be,
C G F
Where the mayor was making a speech,
C
And the crowd started cheering,
F G Am
When he talked about the glory of it all,
Dm G Am
And the boys coming home from the war
Am7 Aadd9
Last night, they were dancing in the streets,
F G Am
And making music in the alleyways and bars,
Em F G
From a house down in the old town came the sound of guitars,
C G F
Margarita was waiting inside,
C E
With her long black hair
F G Am
Hanging down beneath the red light, and she smiled
Dm G Am
For the boys coming home from the war,
Dm G Am F
The boys coming home from the war
CHORUS:
C F
And they said we were heroes, they said we were fine,
C F
We were kings in command, we had god on our side,
C F G Am F
And we said, "Nothing will make us change in any way,
C F
Since yesterday (we're just the same),
C F
Since yesterday (nothing has changed),
C F
Since yesterday (we're just the same)"
C G F G
I can feel there's a new kind of hunger inside, to be satisfied
Am F Am
I saw it there last night
Am7 Aadd9
Last night, I was walking through the shadows,
F G Am
Far away from all the music and the girls,
Em F G
When I saw a soldier waiting with a woman in black,
C G F
And they stood without any word,
C F G Am
Just staring at a photograph of someone, and she began to cry,
Dm G Am
For a boy left behind in the war,
G Am F Am F
Some boy left behind in the war
CHORUS:
C F
And they said we were heroes, they said we were fine,
C F
We were kings in command, we had god on our side,
C F G Am F
And we said, "Nothing will make us change in any way,
C F
Since yesterday (we're just the same),
C F
Since yesterday (nothing has changed),
C F
Since yesterday (we're just the same)"
C G F G
I can feel there's this new kind of hunger inside, to be satisfied
C F C
I saw it there last na na na na na na na na na, hey hey
