The Last Thing On My Mind chords
Capo II
G C G  C G  D  G
It's a Glesson too Clate for the Glearnin',
Cmade of GsandD, made of Gsand
In the wink of an Ceye my soul is Gturnin',
Cin your GhandD, in your Ghand.
Are you Dgoing away with no Cword of fareGwell,
will there Cbe not a Gtrace left beDhind?D7  
Well, I Gcould have loved you Cbetter,
didn't Gmean to be unkind;
you Dknow that was the D7last thing on my Gmind.
You've got Greasons a-Cplenty for Ggoin',
Cthis I GknowD, this I Gknow.
For the weeds have been Csteadily Ggrowin',
Cplease don't Ggo, Dplease don't Ggo.
Are you Dgoing away with no Cword of fareGwell,
will there Cbe not a Gtrace left beDhind?D7  
Well, I Gcould have loved you Cbetter,
didn't Gmean to be unkind;
you Dknow that was the D7last thing on my Gmind.
As we walk on, my Cthoughts keep Gtumblin',
Cround and GroundD, round and Ground
Underneath our feet the Csubways Grumblin',
CunderGgroundD, underGground
Are you Dgoing away with no Cword of fareGwell,
will there Cbe not a Gtrace left beDhind?D7  
Well, I Gcould have loved you Cbetter,
didn't Gmean to be unkind;
you Dknow that was the D7last thing on my Gmind.
As I lie in my Cbed in the Gmornin',
Cwithout GyouD, without Gyou.
Every song in my Cbreast dies a Gbornin',
Cwithout GyouD, without Gyou.
Are you Dgoing away with no Cword of fareGwell,
will there Cbe not a Gtrace left beDhind?D7  
Well, I Gcould have loved you Cbetter,
didn't Gmean to be unkind;
you Dknow that was the D7last thing on my Gmind.
