Last Thing On My Mind chords
Tom Paxton 1964
Open or Capo I*
F F F F F G F
F F F
It's a lesson too late for the learnin',
F F G F
made of sand, made of sand
F F
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin',
F F G F
in your hand, in your hand.
G F F
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
F F G G7
will there be not a trace left behind?
F F
Well, I could have loved you better,
F
didn't mean to be unkind;
G G7 F
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
F F F
You've got reasons a-plenty for goin',
F F G F
this I know, this I know.
F F
For the weeds have been steadily growin',
F F G F
please don't go, please don't go.
G F F
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
F F G G7
will there be not a trace left behind?
F F
Well, I could have loved you better,
F
didn't mean to be unkind;
G G7 F
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
F F
As we walk on, my thoughts keep tumblin',
F F G F
round and round, round and round
F F
Underneath our feet the subways rumblin',
F F G F
underground, underground
G F F
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
F F G G7
will there be not a trace left behind?
F F
Well, I could have loved you better,
F
didn't mean to be unkind;
G G7 F
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
F F
As I lie in my bed in the mornin',
F F G F
without you, without you.
F F
Every song in my breast lies a bornin',
F F G F
without you, without you.
G F F
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
F F G G7
will there be not a trace left behind?
F F
Well, I could have loved you better,
F
didn't mean to be unkind;
G G7 F
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
