The Last Song I Will Write
By: Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit


Capo II

Intro:  Bm F#m G D    Bm G A

Bm   F#m  G        D
Come run away with me
Bm                   G            A
This ain't the world we signed up for
Bm      F#m       G    D
Echoes 'cross the open sea
       Bm      G             A
In a place without any range war

    D                Bm          G
And this is the last song I will write
D                Bm     G
This is the last time I will fight
    E   G
For you
    E   G
For you


Bm         F#m   G      D
Mamma lost her second love
          Bm   G                A
At a time when she really needs him
Bm           F#m       G      D
He could not have been enough
Bm                 G               A
So small but still bumping the ceiling


    D                Bm    G
And this is the last dream I will have
   D              Bm     G       D
My lady, my lord, my mom and dad
    E                         G
All floating away into spring
E                         G
Floating away into spring

Bm       F#m   G       D
You work up on your feet
         Bm        G           A
And then turn away from the sunshine
     Bm              F#m      G     D
It's you who've seen my worst defeat
     Bm          G              A
Crawling through crumbling coal mines

    D                  Bm      G        D
And these are the last words I will sing
                       Bm      G     D
'Cause this is the end of everything
    E                      G
I'm crawling away to the sea
    E                      G
I'm crawling away to the sea
