Last Song Of The Evening

Intro: G  Gmaj7/F# Em7 D C x4 


Verse 

          G 
I’ve been hanging up the laundry 

Fixing my husband’s lunch 
        C 
Mom and Dad’s working the garden 

And I’ve got a hunch 
          G 
That I’ve died and gone to heaven 

I think it because 
            C 
This is the best that it ever was 


[Refrão]

         G    Gmaj7/F# Em7 D   C 
It’s the last song     of  the evening 
     G     Gmaj7/F# Em7 D C 
Everything turned   out alright 
         G    Gmaj7/F# Em7  D   C 
It’s the last song     of   the evening 
         G    Gmaj7/F# Em7  D   C 
It’s the last song     of   the night 


Verse 

         G             Gmaj7/F#      Em7    D 
I raised three healthy boys and very little hell 
        C 
I was a country girl, but I lived to tell 
      G        Gmaj7/F#       Em7       D 
About riveting bombers during World War Two 
        C 
I met a blue-eyed man who thought I hung the moon 
   G           Gmaj7/F#       Em7    D 
He carved me a heart out of a walnut tree 
   C 
He loved me, he loved me 


[Refrão]

         G    Gmaj7/F# Em7 D   C 
It’s the last song     of  the evening 
     G     Gmaj7/F# Em7 D C 
Everything turned   out alright 
         G    Gmaj7/F# Em7  D   C 
         Love came     down and found me 
             G    Gmaj7/F# Em7  D   C 
Now it’s the last song     of   the night

Verse 

     G 
It’s getting late, that’s what the weatherman said 
    C 
I’m dog tired and I’m ready for bed 
    G 
I’m pulling up the covers all alone 
            C 
But I’ll be waking up in a carpenter’s arms 
   G 
My children’s children won’t miss me that’s true 
      C 
But I guess I did what I came here to do
