Take One Last Look - Tom Waits performed by David Maloney chords
Start Jamming...
Well, here I am back on [C#] the old front porch.
[G#] And I've been here a couple of minutes.
The neighborhood [C#] sounds are going to be added
to the [F#m] symphony of this [G#] old tune.
This is a song written [F#] by Tom Waits.
[N] He debuted it the other night on the television,
sang it to David Letterman.
And when I hear a master songwriter
reach so deep down into his sores
and bring up something so simple and yet profound,
I'm deeply moved, I [A#] really am.
And I had to just try [F#] to cobble [N] together the lyrics.
You know, Waits is an unusual talent
with a very unique voice and style.
[G] And so [C#] I put it together this way.
It's called Take One [G#] Last Look.
Let's [F#] watch the sun come up [C#] in another town
[G#] Try our luck [C#] a little further down
Leave [F#] the cards on the table
[C#] Leave the bread on the plate
[D#] Put your hand on the gear shift
Put [G#] your foot off the brake
And [C#] take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take one [G#] last look
[C#] Oh, take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take one [G#] last [C#]
look
[F#] Our bed was something [C#] that the wind can carry
[G#] The arrow points the way across [C#] the waiting prairie
This [D#m] car looks [F#] like it could [C#] give us a good run
Our [D#]
choice to leave [G#] was a good one
So [C#] take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take one [G#] last look
Oh, [C#] take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take one [G#] last [C#]
look
[F#] Let's look forward to the lights [C#] that are new
The [G#] world is a ribbon [C#] of roads for you
[F#] All towns and churches [C#] and tire shops
[G#] They put up speed limit signs [C#] and they hire cops
[F#] I love to see the wind in [C#] your hair
[D#] All we ever need [G#] we can get anywhere
So [C#] take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take one [G#] last look
Oh, [C#] take one last look
[F#] At the place that you [C#] are leaving
Take [G#] one [C#] last look
[F#] Oh, [C#] take one [G#] last [C#]
look
