The Everly Brothers

Last Song I'm Ever Gonna Sing

The Everly Brothers


Tom: C

C    F                    C
This is the last song I'm ever gonna sing 
F                              C
The last time I'll play my old guitar 
  F                    C
I wasted my life and I didn't gain a thing 
       G7               C
Oh I'm never gonna be a star 

          F           C
I came to Nashville a long time ago
                 F            C
People said that I could be a star 
    F          C           F              C
But all that I remember is loneliness and hunger 
     G7                 C
Oh I sure didn't get so far

                     F             C
Well the big time operators made a fool out of me 
              F               C
It sure don't feel so good to fail 
  F             C             F            C
I slept on ever park bench in ever park in Nashville 
        G7                     C
Oh I've slept in the Nashville jail 

       G7               C
Oh I'm never gonna be a star 
       G7               C
Oh I'm never gonna be a star 
       G7               C
Oh I'm never gonna be a star
