[Verse 1]
F                             C/G           G7no5
Lets watch the sun come up in another town
                      C/G
Try our luck a little further down
F
Leave the cards on the table
C
leave the bread on the plate
         Dm
put your hand on the gear shift
C/G                   G7no5
put your foot off the brake

[Chorus]
                  C/G
And take one last look 
       F          C/G      
at the place that you are leaving
              G7no5                  C/G
take one last look, oh take one last look
       F              C       
at the place that you are leaving
         G7no5 C/G
Take one last  look

[Verse 2]
F                              C/G          
Our bed was something that the wind couldn't carry
G7no5                               C
The arrow points the way across the waiting prairie 
     F                       C/G
This car looks like it could give us a good run
    Dm                    G7no5
our choice to leave was a good one

[Chorus]
                  C/G
And take one last look 
       F          C/G      
at the place that you are leaving
              G7no5                  C/G
take one last look, oh take one last look
       F              C       
at the place that you are leaving
         G7no5 C/G
Take one last  look

[Verse 3]
F                        C/G
Lets look forward to the lights that are new
G7no5                    C
the world is a ribbon of road for you
F                           C/G
all towns have churches and tire shops
G7no5                                  C/G
they put up speed limit signs and they hire cops
  F                            C/G
I love to see the wind in your hair
    Dm                  G7no5
all we ever need we can get anywhere

[Chorus]
                  C/G
And take one last look 
       F          C/G      
at the place that you are leaving
              G7no5                  C/G
take one last look, oh take one last look
       F              C       
at the place that you are leaving
         G7no5 C/G
Take one last  look
         G7no5 C/G
Take one last  look
                 G7no5 C/G
Oohh... take one last  look
