Last Goodbye
Jeff Buckley
Text File
Dsus/D Dsus/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 Dsus/D
more than you'll ever know.
Dsus/D etc.
This is our last embrace,
Bm A G
must I dream and always see your face
Em D
Why can't we overcome this wall
A G
Baby, maybe it is just because I didn't know you at all.
(Weird chords -- kind of Dm then Gm7, repeated)
A7 G
Kiss me, please, kiss me
A G
But kiss me out of desire, babe, and not consolation
A G
You know, it makes me so angry 'cause I know that in time
A7 G Dsus/D
I'll only make you cry, this is our last goodbye.
Bm/A/G/A/Bm/A/Em/A/Bm/A/G
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 G
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying,
Em/Am C G
"maybe... you didn't know him at all."
D Dmaj7
Well, the bells out in the church tower chime
D7 Dmaj7/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..."
Dm/Gm7 twice, then A7-G-C (last chord left hanging).
*Note:
The Dsus means D suspended, and it's easy (and nice). It's just a standard D major with
an added 4th note, as follows.
E |---|-2-|(4)| The 2/3/1 chord is the D major. Adding the (4)
B |---|---|-3-| turns it into a Dsus.
G |---|-1-|---|
D |---|---|---|
A |---|---|---|
E |---|---|---|
