The Last Thing on my Mind

  
  No folk club used to be complete without a Tom Paxton 
 song, often this one ;-)
  
 
 G                 C            G
 It's a lesson too late for the learning
 C       G     D         G
 Made of sand,   made of sand
 G                 C              G
 In the wink of an eye my soul is turning
 C       G     D         G
 In your hand,   in your hand
 
         D                  C       G
 Are you going away with no word of farewell
            C        G          D
 Will there be not a trace left behind
    C                                   G 
 I could have loved you better I didn't mean to be unkind
     D                                  G 
 You know that was the last thing on my mind
 
 
 G                      C          G
 You've got reasons and plenty for going
 C      G     D      G
 This I know, this I know
 G                       C        G
 For the weeds have been steadily growing
 C            G   D            G
 Please don't go, Please don't go
 
         D                  C       G
 Are you going away with no word of farewell
            C        G          D
 Will there be not a trace left behind
    C                                   G 
 I could have loved you better I didn't mean to be unkind
     D                                  G 
 You know that was the last thing on my mind
 
 
 G                 C            G
 As I lie in my bed in the morning
 C           G     D             G
 Think about you,    Think about you
 G                C            G
 Every song in my heart dies a borning
 C       G    D       G
 Without You, without you
 
         D                  C       G
 Are you going away with no word of farewell
            C        G          D
 Will there be not a trace left behind
    C                                   G 
 I could have loved you better I didn't mean to be unkind
     D                                  G 
 You know that was the last thing on my mind
