[Opening]
[C] [Em] [F] [G]
[C]I will leave my heart [Em]at the door
I won’t [F]say a word
They’ve [G]all been said before, you know
So [C]why don’t we just [Em]play pretend
Like we’re not [F]scared of what’s coming next
Or [G]scared of having [E7]nothing left?

[verse 2]
Look, [Am]don’t get me wrong
I [C]know there is no tomor[Dm]row
[Dm]All I ask is

[chorus]
[C]If this is my [A]last night with [Dm]you
[F]Hold me like I’m [G]more than just a [C]friend
Give me a [A]memory I can [Dm]use
[F]Take me by the [G]hand while we [C]do what [G]lovers [Am]do
It matters [C]how it [Dm]ends
Cause [F]what if I never love [C]again?

[verse 3]
[Em] [F] [G]
[C]I don’t need you [Em]honesty, it’s already [F]in you eyes
And I’m [G]sure my eyes, they speak for me
[C]No one knows me [Em]like you do
And since you’re the [F]only one mattered
Tell me, [G]who do I run [E7]to?

[verse 4]
Now, [Am]don’t get me wrong
I [C]know there is no tomor[Dm]row
[Dm]All I ask is

[chorus]
[C]If this is my [A]last night with [Dm]you
[F]Hold me like I’m [G]more that just a [C]friend
Give me a [A]memory I can [Dm]use
[F]Take me by the [G]hand while we [C]do what [G]lovers [Am]do
It matters [C]how this [Dm]ends
Cause [F]what if I never love [C]again?

[Closing]
Let this be our [F]lesson [Em]in [Dm]love
Let this be the [F]way [G]we remember [Em]us
I don’t wanna be [E7]cruel or [Am]vicious
And I ain’t [Dm]asking for forgiveness
[F]All I ask [G#]is…

[chorus]
[C#]If this is my [A#]last night with [D#m]you
[F#]Hold me like I’m [G#]more than just a [C#]friend
Give me a [A#]memory I can [D#m]use
[F#]Take me by the [G#]hand while we [C#]do what [G#]lovers [A#m]do
It matters [C#]how this [D#m]ends
Cause [F#]what if I never [G#]love [C#]again?
