Lyrics

How come I was the last to know?

Took the wait ing then you stole the show.

An oth er un sus pect ing (C)Sun day af ter noon.

I was cap ur tured by life that stare;

now I’m shat tered, but I re don’t care.

And the peo ple walk ing (C)by don’t have a clue

that (F)(1.) I

kissed your (C)face

till the (E)sun was in our eyes,

till the (E)af ter noon ar rived.

And (F)I

can’t ex (C)plain.

Last (A)night I saw the fi re works, the (A)kind of pain that nev er hurts, the (A)one you hate to love that’s made for you.

An oth er (F)un sus pect ing Sun day af ter noon.

Mon day is a fun ny thing; (F)un sus pect ing Sun day af ter noon.

This sweet re lief,

(E)un ex pect ed things,

is this the end,

or (D)on ly the be gin ning?

(F)un sus pect ing Sun day af ter noon.

An oth er (F)un sus pect ing (G)Sun day

af ter (D)noon.
