[Verse]
A D A
Dear Shirley Jean I hope this finds you good
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
I wanted to write, but didn't know if I should
A D A
So many year now, that I've lost what is real
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
But I still remember how you made me feel
A D A
From boys home to boys home til I was eighteen
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
Sent me to prison, they said I was mean
A D A
and as young as I was I could handle my own
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
the men that I dealt with, I left cold as stone
[Chorus]
A D A
It's the last night, that I'll see your face
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
D (Bass walk) D C# B A
Times taken it's toll, but I'm alright to go
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
It's my last night and I thought you should know
[Verse]
A D A
Writing these words don't come easy to me
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
But i've run out of time and soon i'll be free
A D A
you were the only one I ever had
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
the only bright spot in a life that went bad
A D A
the years they have passed but i got through them all
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
with a wallet sized picture of you on my wall
A D A
the way that you kissed me without regret
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
is something my heart will never forget
[Chorus]
A D A
It's the last night, that I'll see your face
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
D (Bass walk) D C# B A
Times taken it's toll, but I'm alright to go
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
It's my last night and I thought you should know
[Verse]
A D A
when they flip the switch i hope all i can see
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
is you in my arms dancing with me
D (Bass walk) D C# B A
in this cold world i did all i could do
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
i never had love, but the closest was you
[Chorus]
A D A
It's the last night, that I'll see your face
A (Bass walk) A G# F# E
Daydreams of you were my sweetest place
D (Bass walk) D C# B A
Times taken it's toll, but I'm alright to go
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
It's my last night and I thought you should know
A (Bass walk) E F# G# A
It's my last night and I thought you should know
