[Intro]
C   Am   Dm   G
 
[Chorus]
C
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
        Am                Am7
But the very next day you gave it away
Dm
This year, to save me from tears
      G                  G7
I'll give it to someone special

[Verse 1]
C
Once bitten and twice shy
Am                     Am7
I keep my distance but you still catch my eye
Dm
Tell me baby, do you recognise me?
G                          G7
Well, it's been a year, it doesn't surprise me.
 
[Verse 2]
C
"Merry Christmas!", I wrapped it up and sent it
(whispered)
Am
With a note saying "I Love You" I meant it
Dm
Now I know what a fool I've been
           G
But if you kissed me now I know you'd fool me again
 
[Chorus]
C
Last Christmas, I gave you my heart

[Interlude]
C   Am   Dm   G
 
[Verse 3]
C
A crowded room, friends with tired eyes
Am
I'm hiding from you and your soul of ice
Dm
My God, I thought you were someone to rely on
G
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on
 
[Verse 4]
  C
A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
  Am                                   Dm
A man undercover but you tore him apart
                        (To - ore me apa - art)
Oooh oooh
         G
Now I've found a real love you'll never fool me again
 
[Chorus]

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
        Am                Am7
But the very next day you gave it away

I'll give it to someone special

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
  Am
A man undercover but you tore him apart
Dm
Maybe... next year
(spoken)
     G
I'll give it to someone, I'll give it to someone...
 
C                    Am
Special ... Special!   Someone
Dm
 
(Fade out)
