[Opening]
[Bb]It’s been seventeen days since you left, twenty hours and thirty minutes [Eb]
Count the seconds every breath, and watch the road roll out like [Bb]ribbon
And maybe she just can’t forget, all the miles they have driven [Eb]
Since the moment that they met
[chorus]
He took her [Eb]heart, into his hands[F]
Turned into ash[Gm]es, slipped through his [Bb]fingers
It tore him [Eb]apart, and he couldn’t stand[F]
Watching the [Gm]magic, turn into [Bb]cinders
[chorus]
[Eb]So when you pull away, [F]don’t let the memories blind you
[Gm]All of the things you chase, [Bb]falling away behind you
Is [Eb]something you can’t replace, [F]chained to the love that bonds you
[Gm]Don’t let the past remind you, she’s the [Bb]last of her kind[Eb]
The [F]last of her [Gm]kind, the [Bb]last of her kind
[Closing]
[Bb]It’s been twenty-three days since they spoke, and he almost sent a post[Eb]card
In every sentence that he wrote etched like tombstones on a grave[Bb]yard
And maybe he just can accept all the strings that needed chang[Eb]ing
The mistakes that he was making
[chorus]
He took her [Eb]heart, into his hands[F]
Turned into ash[Gm]es, slipped through his [Bb]fingers
It tore him [Eb]apart, and he couldn’t stand[F]
Watching the [Gm]magic, turn into [Bb]cinders
[chorus]
[Eb]So when you pull away, [F]don’t let the memories blind you
[Gm]All of the things you chase, [Bb]falling away behind you
Is [Eb]something you can’t replace, [F]chained to the love that bonds you
[Gm]Don’t let the past remind you, she’s the [Bb]last of her kind[Eb]
The [F]last of her kind[Gm]
[chorus]
He took her [Eb]heart, into his hands[F]
Turned into ash[Gm]es, slipped through his [Bb]fingers
It tore him [Eb]apart, and he couldn’t stand[F]
Watching the [Gm]magic, turn into [Bb]cinders
[chorus]
[Eb]So when you pull away, [F]don’t let the memories blind you
[Gm]All of the things you chase, [Bb]falling away behind you
Is [Eb]something you can’t replace, [F]chained to the love that bonds you
[Gm]Don’t let the past remind you, she’s the [Bb]last of her kind[Eb]
The [F]last of her kind[Gm], the [Bb]last of her kind[Eb]
