Intro: E7 Em E7

E
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   A7                    E   
Or wait a minute maybe I do,
E
If you don't mind I'll start a new line,
E                            B7
And decide after thinking it through,
   E
Go on in front if you're in such a hurry,
E                             A7
Like heaven ain't waiting for you,
        E
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   B                      E
On second thought maybe I do,

E
It's getting hard to watch my pals check out,
A7
Cuts like a wore out knife,
    E
One thing I learned about running the road,
E                         B7
Is forever don't apply to life,
E
Waylon and Ray and Merle and old Harlan
                      A7
Lived just as fast as me,
E
I still got a lotta good friends left,
      B                        E
And I wonder who the next will be.

E
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   A7                       
Or wait a minute maybe I do,
E                                  A
If you don't mind I'll start a new line,
                 E           B
And decide after thinking it through,
   E
Go on in front if you're in such a hurry,
E                             A7
Like heaven ain't waiting for you,
        E                     A7
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   B7                     E
On second thought maybe I do,

A7                                       E
Maybe we'll all meet again, on the other side,
      A7                                   B
We'll pick and sing, load up the buses and ride,
        E
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   A                     E
Or wait a minute maybe I do,
E
And if you don't mind I'll start a new line,
                 B           A7
And decide after thinking it through,
E
Go on in front if you're in such a hurry,
              A7
Cause hell is a-waiting there too,
  E
I don't wanna be the last man standing,
   B7                     E
On second thought maybe I do,
     Em6     E        Em6     E        Em6     E
Yeah maybe I do, yeah maybe I do, yeah maybe I do.
