Last Christmas

Last Christmas I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special.

1. Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my [A] eye
Tell me baby do you [A7] ɾecognize me
Well it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me.

Happy Christmas, I wrapped it up and [Bm] sent it
With a note saying I love you
I meant it now I know what a fool I've been
But if you [A7] kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again.

2. A crowded ɾoom, friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you [A7] and [Bm] your soul of ice
Oh my [A] I thought you [A7] were
Someone to [C7] ɾely on [C7] me
I guess I was [Am7] a shoulder to [C7] cry on.

A friend to [C7] discover with a fire in her heart
A girl under cover but you [A7] tore me apart
You tore me apart now I've found a ɾeal love
You'll never fool me again.

[Spoken:]
Maybe [Am] next year
I'll give it to [C7] someone
I'll give it to [C7] someone special.
