[E] Boys and [N] girls, Tom Paxton is with us tonight.
Hi, I'm Tom.
I'm over here.
Hi.
[Bb] That's
[E] tough to follow.
Eric Bibb is tough to follow.
But ever since the day in a quarry in the middle of Germany that I followed Black Sabbath,
I have not known the meaning of fear.
[A] Bring it on!
[Ab]
It's a lesson [Db] too late for [Ab] the learning
[Db] Made [Ab] of sand, [Eb] [Ab] made of sand
In the wing of [Db] an eye my soul [Ab] is turning
In your hand, [Eb] in [Ab] your hand
Are [Eb] you going away [Abm] with [Db] no word [Ab] of farewell?
Will [Db] there be [Ab] not a trace left [Eb]
behind?
[Ab] I couldn't love you [Db] better, [Ab] didn't mean to be unkind
You [Eb] know that was the last thing [Bb] [Ab] on my mind
Reasons are plenty
Your reasons [Db] are plenty [Ab] for going
Yes, I know, [Eb] yes, I [Ab]
know
And the weeds have been [Db] steadily [Ab]
growing
Please don't go, [Eb] please [Cm] don't [Ab] go
Are [Eb] you going away [Db] with no word [Ab] of farewell?
Will [Db] there [Ab] be not a trace left [Eb]
behind?
[Ab] I couldn't love you [Db] better, [Ab] didn't mean to be unkind
You know that [Eb] was the last thing [Ab] on my mind
[Eb] [Ab]
[Db] [Ab]
[G] [Eb] [Ab]
As I lie in my [Db] bed in [Ab] the morning
Without you, [Eb] without [Ab]
you
Each song in [Db] my breath [Ab] dies a morning
Without you, [Eb] [Ab] without you
Are [Eb] you going away with [Db]
no word of [Ab] farewell?
Will [Db] there be [Ab] not a trace [Eb] left behind?
[Ab]
I couldn't love [Db] you better, [Ab]
didn't mean to be unkind
You know [Eb] that was the last thing [Ab] on my mind
[Db]
[Eb] That was the last thing [Ab] on my [Db] [Ab] mind
[N] Thank you
Thanks very much
[D]
[B] Why [Bb] [D] do you wear that cap, Tom?
[N] I'm sorry?
Why do you wear that cap?
Why do you wear that cap, Liam?
[A] I'm a good guy
[D] I wear the black cap, right?
The first one of these I found was in a [Bb] department store in Stockholm back in 1968
I long [D] since lost that
I've gone through about 50 of them, I suppose
Hi, I'm Tom.
I'm over here.
