The Last Thing on My Mind Tom Paxton
[G]It's a lesson too [C]late for the [G]learnin',[C]
Made of [G]sand, [D]made of [G]sand
In the wink of an [C]eye my soul is [G]turnin', [C]
In your [G]hand, [D]in your [G]hand.
Chorus:
Are you [D]going away with no [C]word of fare[G]well,
Will there [C]be not a [G]trace left be[D]hind?[D7]
Well, I [G]could have loved you [C]better,
Didn't [G]mean to be unkind,
You [D]know that was the [D7]last thing on my [G]mind.
[G]You've got reasons a-[C]plenty for [G]goin',[C]
This I [G]know, [D]this I [G]know.
For the weeds have been [C]steadily [G]growin',[C]
Please don't [G]go, [D]please don't [G]go.
Chorus:
[G]Are you [D]going away with no [C]word of fare[G]well,
Will there [C]be not a [G]trace left be[D]hind?[D7]
Well, I [G]could have loved you [C]better,
Didn't [G]mean to be unkind;
You [D]know that was the [D7]last thing on my [G]mind.
[G]As we walk on, my [C]thoughts keep [G]tumblin',[C]
Round and [G]round, [D]round and [G]round
Underneath our [C]feet the subways [G]rumblin',[C]
Under[G]ground, [D]under[G]ground
Chorus:
Are you [D]going away with no [C]word of fare[G]well,
Will there [C]be not a [G]trace left be[D]hind?[D7]
Well, I [G]could have loved you [C]better,
Didn't [G]mean to be unkind;
You [D]know that was the [D7]last thing on my [G]mind.
[G]As I lie in my [C]bed in the [G]mornin',[C]
Without [G]you, [D]without [G]you.
Every song in my [C]breast lies a [G]bornin',[C]
Without [G]you, [D]without [G]you.
