Last Beat Of My Heart Chords & Tabs
Last Beat Of My Heart Chords
Last Beat of My Heart
by Siouxsie and the Banshees
===============================
This is the song my wife and I danced to at our wedding, so I figure it should be the
first chord I ever submit! This is a very simple song and good for beginners. The
rhythm is reminiscent of a 50's era slow ballad. Play along with the song and you'll
have it in no time.
Intro: Just strum or pick a C maj (arpeggio sounds nice here)
C
In the sharp gust of love
My memory stirred
Am
When time wreathed a rose
A garland of shame
F
Its thorn my only delight
War torn, afraid to speak
C
We dare to breathe
Majestic, Imperial,
A bridge of sighs
Am
Solitude sails
In a wave of forgiveness
C
On angels' wings
Reach out your hands
Don't turn your back
Am
Don't walk away
F
How in the world
Fm
Can I wish for this?
C C7
Never to be torn apart
F
Close to you
Fm C
'Til the last beat
Of my heart

C
At the close of day
The sunset cloaks
Am
These words in shadowplay
F
Here and now, long and loud
C
My heart cries out
Am
And the naked bone of an echo says
C
Don't walk away
F Fm
Reach out your hands
C C7
I'm just a step away
F
How in the world
Fm
Can I wish for this?
C C7
Never to be torn apart
F
Close to you
Fm C
'Til the last beat
C7
Of my heart
F
How in the world
Fm
Can I wish for this?
C C7
Never to be torn apart
F
'Til the last beat
Fm C
'Til the last fleeting beat
C7
Of my heart
F Fm C C7 (repeat to fade out)
