The Last Word chords by Mary-Chapin Carpenter

THE LAST WORD (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-------------------------------------
[In concert, MCC performed this in the key of F; she was playing in C
 with a capo at the 5th fret (it was a segue from "This Shirt"), and
 John Jennings played in E with a capo on the 1st fret.  On the CD, the
 song is in Eb; she plays in C with a capo at the 3rd fret, and Jennings
 plays in E with the guitar tuned down 1/2 step.  These are the chords
 that MCC plays, so capo 3.]
[In the intro, the G has a Gsus in the middle, and the F has an F(9).]
