The Last Thing On My Mind chords
The Dubliners (Tom Paxton 1964)
Capo II
G+G
G+G
It's a lesson too late for the learnin',
G+G
made of sand, made of sand
G+G
In the wink of an eye my soul is turnin',
G+G
in your hand, in your hand.
G+G
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
D7D7
will there be not a trace left behind?
C majorC
Well, I could have loved you better,
G+G
didn't mean to be unkind;
G+G
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
G+G
You've got reasons a-plenty for goin',
G+G
this I know, this I know.
G+G
For the weeds have been steadily growin',
G+G
please don't go, please don't go.
G+G
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
D7D7
will there be not a trace left behind?
C majorC
Well, I could have loved you better,
G+G
didn't mean to be unkind;
G+G
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
G+G
As we walk on, my thoughts keep tumblin',
G+G
round and round, round and round
G+G
Underneath our feet the subways rumblin',
G+G
underground, underground
G+G
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
D7D7
will there be not a trace left behind?
C majorC
Well, I could have loved you better,
G+G
didn't mean to be unkind;
G+G
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
G+G
As I lie in my bed in the mornin',
G+G
without you, without you.
G+G
Every song in my breast lies a bornin',
G+G
without you, without you.
G+G
Are you going away with no word of farewell,
D7D7
will there be not a trace left behind?
C majorC
Well, I could have loved you better,
G+G
didn't mean to be unkind;
G+G
you know that was the last thing on my mind.
