<br/> THE LAST WORD (Mary Chapin Carpenter)<br/> -------------------------------------<br/> [In concert, MCC performed this in the key of F; she was playing in C<br/> with a capo at the 5th fret (it was a segue from "This Shirt"), and<br/> John Jennings played in E with a capo on the 1st fret. On the CD, the<br/> song is in Eb; she plays in C with a capo at the 3rd fret, and Jennings<br/> plays in E with the guitar tuned down 1/2 step. These are the chords<br/> that MCC plays, so capo 3.]<br/> [In the intro, the G has a Gsus in the middle, and the F has an F(9).]<br/> <br/> C G F G C G F G<br/> [intro]<br/> <br/> C G F G C G F G<br/> You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone<br/> Am G C F C G C - Csus C<br/> It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done<br/> <br/> Dm7 C/E F G <br/> Can't seem to keep the faith, as if that's all I need to do<br/> Dm7 C/E F G - Gsus - G<br/> I'd rather walk away than take what belongs to you<br/> <br/> You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone<br/> It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done<br/> <br/> Some words will cut you down like you were only in the way<br/> Why should I stand ths ground, it won't hurt as much to say<br/> <br/> You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone<br/> It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done<br/> <br/> Sometimes we're blinded by the very thing we need to see<br/> I finally realized that you need it more than you need me<br/> <br/> C G F G C G F G<br/> You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone<br/> Am G C F C G Am F<br/> It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done<br/> C G F(9) Gsus - G<br/> The damage has all been done<br/> <br/> C G F G C G F G Am G C F C G C.<br/> [guitar solo]<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> - Adam Schneider, schneider@pobox.com<br/> <br/> </div> </div> <div class="breadcrumbs">
