Song title: Last To Know

Album: Seven Worlds Collide / One Nil

Words and Music by Neil Finn and Wendy Melvoin

Copyright © 2001 EMI Records Limited

Tabbed by Paul Hammond (ltk@pauldhammond.freeserve.co.uk)

Note: I prefer the live version of this song, as heard on the album

Seven Worlds Collide, to the the better-known studio version,

so this transcription combines elements of both.

Intro:

h - hammer on, p - pull off, s - slide

D A7sus4 Em7 Gadd9

Chords:

D A7sus4 Em7

I'm way down the track, I made the wrong turn,

G

finished up where I started

D A7sus4

You noticed the change come over me

Em7 G D

fell in love with my own reflection, yeah

A7sus4 Em7

How does it feel beneath your own wheel,

G F#m

feel like an accident waking up

G A7sus4 A7

under a bus with my fingers crossed

F#m G A7sus4 A7

Now is the time we could make it up

So you lost the fear, it wasn't that bad

left to your own devices, yeah

Still a young girl, eyes on the clock

tick like a motor running out

Magnets and words up on the fridge

speak to the poet in all of us

F#m G A7sus4 A7

well I missed the page that you thought about,

F#m G A7sus4

you drew in the frost on the window pane

D Gadd6 A7sus4

And who I wonder

D Gadd6 A7sus4

could fail to notice

D Gadd6 A7sus4

the aching silence

Bm F# G* Em

come down?

Bm F# G* Em

I'm humble now Yeeeeaaaah

I hope you might come back

in your own time

left to your own devices

And so that's how it goes,

never the first, always the last to know
