Kevin Deal - Last Drop Chords

Kevin Deal - Last Drop

E                A                   E
Used to tell me stories when I was a kid
E                        A                E
It's like finding buried treasure someone hid
B               A
I'd hang on his every line
B                 A
Like a window to another time
E                          A               E
Collided with the smell of butane and cigarettes
E                       A               E
Intended with more than just a shade of regret


E            B             Fm
Rain Drops, tear Drops and last drop of gin
E                      B         Fm
Couldn't wash away the traces of where he had been
A                B
His words were a little slurred 
E                A
Not a one went unheard


He used tell me what it meant to be a man
Today he's no small part of who I am
Domino's gin and rum in hand
Cigarette butts and empty cans
Both trying our best just to hold on
Both knowin that he'd soon be gone


Chorus

Smiling as he's waving goodbye
It's the way I'll always hold him in my minds eye
No it was not pretty in the end
Best of our hero's they're only men
I can still hear him talking behind that big old grin
And I carry his words with me in my heart closer than any friend

Chorus

Smiling as he's waving goodbye
