I'm not sure why this isn't working..
var fullName = document.getElementById("full_name");
var lastName = document.getElementsByTagName("last_name")[1];
<!DOCTYPE html>

<head></head>
<body>
<h1 id="full_name"><span class="first_name">Andrew</span> <span class="last_name">Chalkley</span></h1>

var lastName = document.getElementsByTagName("span")[1];
