Last Blues

Am                    Em         
   My precious wife,          I 
              F
am in shambles         I am 
crumbling,       I am
Am                    Em         
   Was it something I did that 
              F
bid the tide to climb so high that 
it ripped our shore up
Am                    Em     
    I can fix it,             I 
                  F
swear,                 If you trust 
me.      I am old
Am                    Em         
   and I am rusting           but
              F
 I care               I care

      My precious wife,   we made a 
promise,
Am       Em            F
         Pledged   our flesh to be 
one
Am       Em            F
    How  can    you    doubt a love 
that
Am       Em            F
stood so proud  as we  raised our 
children?

Am       Em              F
         I believe in      it still
Am       Em              F
         It has faltered   and it is
 failing
Am       Em              F
     But I know            it's 
there
Am       Em              F
         It's there           and 
how it changed

How strange   to think     we once 
were lovers
    Cm           Gm           Bb
       Now we've wrapped  the past 
up in broken glass
    Cm           Gm           F
             And when   you   speak 
my name you
    Cm           Gm           Bb
    shudder. My  precious wife,     
believe I'll save this
    Cm           Gm              
                 I'll revive it,    
F
I will

           We've built    a   family
 from this
    Cm           Gm           F
    marriage.                 Why 
would you tear it apart?

   Am
   Speak now, precious. Your silence
 screams. You're giving in to your 
failure
   F
   Hear me, that promise that you 
made was meant to keep
   C                  Em          
forever. Until we die,   you're 
      C      E7
not allowed to change your

   Am
   mind.  Oh husband, I could not 
control it
   F
      Husband, I could not abstain
   C                               
      One cannot stop the wind from
 Em            C        E7
 blowing nor refuse the falling rain

   Am
      Love stirred up a storm
   F
 inside me.   Wrapped its arms 
around my
   C                     Em       
   waist.   I failed you dear, I'm
        C      E7
 sorry, oh I'm sorry

   Am
      But there was nothing I could 
do
   F
      No, there was nothing I could 
do
   C                               
      Sure as the rain will fall,  
     Em        C     E7
Some love just fails

   Am
      There was nothing I could do
   F
      There was nothing I could do
   C
      There was nothing I could do
   Em           C       E7      Am
      There was nothing I could do
