Last Song

Verse 1

Fingerpicked guitar and voice

You came here with your friendsI came here in a tie I hateWatched you laugh across the roomFor three hours and a toastNever found the nerve to move

Pre-Chorus

Now the lights are coming upAnd the band says one more song

Chorus

Stay for the last songDon't go and find your coatI've waited here all night longStay for the last song

Verse 2

Your shoes are in your hand nowMy jacket's on your armsThe bartender's stacking chairsNobody's looking at us now

Pre-Chorus

Now the lights are coming upAnd the band says one more song

Chorus

Piano enters, slow sway

Stay for the last songDon't go and find your coatI've waited here all night longStay for the last song

Bridge

Strings rise, voice opening up

If the song ends and you leaveAt least I'll have had this one

Final Chorus

Full band, gritty soaring belt

Stay for the last songDon't go and find your coatI've waited here all night longStay for the last songStay for the last songDon't go and find your rideI've waited here all night longStay for the last song
