This Could Be My Last Song chords by Frank Watkinson

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
G


Verse 1:
G
  We're looking back on my life
Am7
  It’s hard to understand
D7/F#
  How time just seems to fly
C                         G
  When you're an older man
G

  Whatever happened to all those dreams I had
Am7
  And all those crazy plans
D7/F#
I never really got the chance to do
          C                        G
They just slipped right through my hands
           Am7  D7/F#        G
Through my hands, through my hands


Verse 2:
G
  And looking back on all I've learned
Am7
  I’m findin' it hard to tell
   D7/F#
If there really is a heaven
      C                     G
Or if there really is a hell
        G
It's an age old conversation
            Am7
That's been had since dawn began
        D7/F#                                  C
But you just seem to spend more time on it now
                G
You're an older man
         Am7 D7/F#     G
An older man, an oldеr man


Chorus:
    C                 D
And this could be the last song
G    G/F#  Em         C
  My final swan song
  D                    G
Before the curtain call
C                    D
  I hope I played my part well
G     G/F#   Em       C
  For I know so well
D              G
  There's no encore


Verse 3:
G
  I often wonder what it is
Am7
  That we are all craving for
D7/F#
  Some kind of justification
C                     G
  Now time is getting short
        G
Is it intelligence or arrogance
            Am7
That makes us say there must be more
   D7/F#
We can't accept that

This could be it
       C              G          Am7 D7/F#  G
And it leaves us so unsure, so unsure, so unsure


Verse 4:
              G
They say that wisdom comes with age
           Am7
But that's not always the case
               D7/F#
And you’d be a fool to judge a wise man
       C               G
By the lines upon his face
            G
I know I’ve done some stupid things
         Am7
And some things I can't forget
    D7/F#
And no time left to try to put them right
       C             G         Am7 D7/F# G
Is the one thing I regret, I regret, I regret


Chorus:
    C                 D
And this could be the last song
G    G/F#  Em         C
  My final swan song
  D                    G
Before the curtain call
      C                     D
And I hope I played my part well
G     G/F#   Em       C
  For I know so well
D              G
  There's no encore

    C                 D
And this could be the last song
G    G/F#  Em         C
  My final swan song
D                    G
  Before the curtain call
      C                     D
And I hope I played my part well
G     G/F#   Em       C
  For I know so well
D              G
  There's no encores
