{t:The Last Thing on My Mind}
 {st:Tom Paxton}
 
 [G]It's a lesson too [F]late for the [G]learnin'
 [F]Made of [C]sand, [G7]made of [C]sand
 [C]In the wink of an [F]eye my soul is [C]turnin
 [F]In your [C]hand, [G7]in your [C]hand.
 
 Chorus
{soc}
 [C]Are you [G7]going away with no [F]word of [C]farewell,
 [C]Will there be not a trace left [G7]behind?
 I [C]could have loved you [F]better,
 Didn't [C]mean to be unkind,
 [C]You know that was the [G7]last thing on my [C]mind.
 {eoc}

[C]As we walk on, my [F]thoughts are a [C]tumblin'
[F]Round and [C]round, [G7]round and [C]round
 [C]Underneath our feet the [F]subways a- [C]rumblin'
 [F]Under[C]ground, [G7]under[C]ground

Chorus

 [C]Are you [G7]going away with no [F]word of [C]farewell,
 [C]Will there be not a trace left [G7]behind?

 Didn't [C]mean to be unkind,
 [C]You know that was the [G7]last thing on my [C]mind.

 [C]You've got reasons a-[F]plenty for [C]goin'
 [F]This I [C]know, [G7]this I [C]know.
 [C]For the weeds have been [F]steadily [C]growin'
 [F]Please don't [C]go, [G7]please don't [C]go.

[C]As I lie in my [F]bed in the [C]mornin'
 [F]Without [C]you, [G7]without [C]you.
 [C]Every song in my [F]breast lies a [C]bornin'
 [F]Without [C]you, [G7]without [C]you.
