the last song

another cold wet rainy day in texas and this is the result

G                                        Am
knew a man he played the blues
C                                 G
he didnt have much time
G                             Am
sit down and listen close
C                                    G
tell you whats on my mind

he sat there and looked away
quietly he began to play
closed his eyes and owed his head
looked at me and finally said

life is long but time is short
the road goes no where
you never know what life will bring
some times its hard to care

strummed a chord on his old guitar
said wish upon a star
make a wish and make it good
wish for what you think you should

think about the road your on
think about where you are
think about the one you love
before you go to far

then he bowed his head again
i knew it was over then
quietly he played along
lost the words to another song

the lights go dim and darkness comes
the day is at its end
i think about the songs we played
i think about my friend

sung so soft i cant hear it now
time to take a bow
with a peaceful look on his face
put the guitar back in its case
