Better Than Ezra – Our Last Night (Ukulele)

C                      D
We were standing in an empty room

Am                C
The moonlight was falling

         C                        D                 Am    C
You were holding my hand when the car pulled up for you

C                        D
And I could have spent a life with you

Am                  C
But those days were over

         C                         D               Am    C
You were calling my name when your face faded from view

    Am                C           C                 D
And wasn't it you who told me the sun would always chase the day

    Am                C
And wasn't it you who told me:

   C      D          Am    C
   Angels fly in the air tonight

           C                  D                   Am     C
   Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?

       C     D               Am      C
   And stars collide and the air's alive

   C                      D                 Am
   Or was it just like those promises that you made

          C    C
   On our last night?

C                 D
I remember waking up with you

Am              C
The days doing nothing

           C                     D              Am    C
You meant more to me then than I think you ever knew.

C                        D
But you were gonna be a doctor, movie star

Am           C
A poet at a Nobel seminar

  C                    D                Am    C
I hope the world never tore that out of you

   C      D          Am    C
   Angels fly in the air tonight

           C                  D                   Am     C
   Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?

       C     D               Am      C
   And stars collide and the air's alive

   C                      D                 Am
   Or was it just like those promises that you made

          C    C
   On our last night?

      Am                        C
  And what ever happened to the things you loved

          C                        D
  And the songs we played, and the indian days

  Am                       C               C    
  Whatever happened to the things you gave away?

       D                Am      C    C   
  Like Harold and Maude singing

       D                Am      C    C   
  Like Harold and Maude singing

       D                Am      C    C   
------------------------------------------------------------

C                   D         
I was waving as you drove away

Am               C
The sunlight was falling

         C                      D            Am
You were writing backwards in a dusty window pane

   C      D          Am    C
   Angels fly in the air tonight

           C                  D                   Am     C
   Saying wasn't it just like swimming out on the lake?

       C     D               Am      C
   And stars collide and the air's alive

   C                      D                 Am
   Or was it just like those promises that you made

          C    C      D     Am
   On our last night?

          C    C      D     Am
   On our last night?

          C    C      D     Am
   On our last night?
