Last Stand Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]It[G][D][A][G][A]
[D]used to be
that old John Wayne
[G]Would fight the good fight once again,
[D]Find the strength to bear the pain,
Stand [A]up til he'd [G]finally [A]fall.

[Verse 2]
But [D]now it's not just movie time,
And [G]now it's you that's on the line.
And [D]now it's you that's going to find
If [A]you can stand at all.

[Verse 3]
So you [G]circle all the wagon[A]s
And you [Bm]hide behind [F#m]the trees,
And you [G]try to find some cour
[A]age on your [D]knees.
When you [G]heard the sound of taps [A]played
[Bm]By the one man b[F#m]and,
[G]You knew this is where
you'd have [A]to make
Your [G]last stand.

[Verse 4]
And so, [D]my friends, the last stand,
[G]The last song from the last band,
[D]The last note from the last man,
But you [A]gave it all you can.

[Verse 5]
[D]The cards came down to the last deal,
You're a [G]starving man
at his last meal,
[D]And the movie's rolled down
to the last real,
It's got an [A]ending you never planned.

[Verse 6]
[D]She's left you now, and so it seems,
You've [G]tumbled down the last stream,
And you've [D]found out
that the final dream,
Can [A]disappear so fast.

[Verse 7]
[D]Watch it all just fade away, boy,
[G]It came down to the last day,
[D]And then the last out,
and then the last play,
[A]And you're alone at last.

[Verse 8]
So you [G]circle all the wag[A]ons
And you [Bm]hide behind [F#m]the trees,
And you [G]try to find some [A]courage
on [D]your knees.
When you [G]heard the sound of taps [A]played
[Bm]By the one man b[F#m]and,
You [G]knew this is where
you'd have [A]to make
Your [G]last stand.

[Verse 9]
[D]Well, so it was late last night,
[G]She left on the final flight
[D]You watched as the last light
Went [A]out there in your soul.

[Verse 10]
[D]Took your look around the top,
[G]For now you face the final drop.
[D]You'll go down fast and you won't stop,
You [A]found a very deep [D]hole.

[Verse 11]
Say you're off on the last [G]ride,
Remembering how she last cried,
And you [D]know that love had long last died
[A]In silence, not in pain.

[Verse 12]
[D]You lost your last, your last race
[G]Stumbled in at last place,
[D]Too late to find the one last face
[A]Waiting in the rain.

[Verse 13]
So you [G]circle all the wagons
[A]And you hid[Bm]e behind the[F#m] trees,
And you [G]try to find some cour
[A]age on your [D]knees.
When you [G]heard the sound
of taps [A]played
[Bm]By the one man b[F#m]and,
You [G]knew this is where
you'd have [A]to make
Your [G]last stand.
