(verse)
D                       G
Sitting here in Avalon, looking at 
the pouring rain
D                            G
Summertime has come and gone and 
everybody's home again
A                                 
Closing down for the season, I 
       C                G
found the last of the souvenirs
A                                 
I can still taste the wedding cake
          C                    
 and it's sweet after all these 
 G
years

(chorus)
G             C            D
These are the last words I have to 
say
C                             D
That's why it took so long to write
C                              D
There will be other words some other
 day
C                          D
But that's the story of my life

(verse)
D                                
There's comfort in my coffee cup and
G
 apples in the early fall
D                                 
They're pulling all the moorings 
  G
up and gathering at the Legion Hall
A                                 
They swept away all the streamers 
          C           G
after the Labor Day parade

A                                 
There's Nothing left for a dreamer
           C             G
 now, only one final serenade

(chorus)
G                 C            D
And these are the last words I have 
to say
C                       D
Before another age goes by
C                               D
With all those other songs I'll have
 to play
C                          D  A  G
But that's the story of my life

(bridge)
G           C              G    
And it's so clear standing here 
        D
where I am
F               C          G
Ain't that what justice is for?
Bb          F       Bb    C     
Frankly, my dear, I don't give a
 G       D
 damn anymore

(verse - 1st und 2nd line 
instrumental)
D  G
D  G
A                                 
Stack the chairs on the table 
           C                
tops, hang the sheets on the 
   G
chandeliers
A                                 
It slows down but it never stops, 
         C                     G
ain't it sweet after all these years

(chorus)
G                 C            D
And these are the last words I have 
to say
C                           D
It's always hard to say goodbye
C                             D
But now it's time to put this book 
away
C                          D
But that's the story of my life

(chorus)
G             C            D
These are the last words I have to 
say
C                             D
That's why it took so long to write
C                              D
There will be other words some other
 day
C                          D
Ain't that the story of my life

(chorus)
G             C            D
These are the last words I have to 
say
C                       D
Before another age goes by
C                               D
With all those other songs I'll have
 to play
C                          D
Ain't that the story of my life
