The Last Thing On My Mind
Tom Paxton
[C] It's a lesson too [F] late for the [C] learnin'..
[F] made of [C] sand, [G] made of [C] sand.
[C] In the wink of an [F] eye my soul is [C] turnin'..
[F] in your [C] hand, [G] in your [C] hand.
Are you [G] goin' away with no [F] word of fare[C]well?
Will there [Am] be not a [Em] trace left be[G]hind?
I [C] could have loved you [F] better, didn't [C] mean to be un[Em]kind..
[F] oh, [C] you know that was the [G] last thing on my [C] mind. [C] [G] [C]
[C] You had reasons a-[F]plenty for [C] goin'..
[F] this I k[C] now, [G] this I [C] know.
[C] And the weeds have been [F] steadily [C] growin'..
[F] Please don't [C] go, [G] please don't [C] go.
Are you [G] goin' away with no [F] word of fare[C]well?

[F] oh, [C] you know that was the [G] last thing on my [C] mind. [C] [G] [C]
[C] As I lie in my [F] bed in the [C] mornin'..
[F] without [C] you, [G] without [C] you.
[C] Every song in my [F] heart dies a-[C]bornin'
[F] without [C] you, [G] without [C] you.
