Mary Chapin Carpenter - "The Last Word"

THE LAST WORD (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
-------------------------------------
[This song is weird. It's in Eb, but the electric guitar in the intro
is playing what sound like open strings. I think that the electric is
tuned down a half step. I suspect that Mary Chapin plays it in C with
a capo on the 3rd fret, or in D with a capo at the first fret, which is
how I've written it here.]

D A G A D A G A
You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
Bm A D G D A D - Dsus D
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Em7 D/F# G A
Can't seem to keep the faith, as if that's all I need to do
Em7 D/F# G A - Asus - A
I'd rather walk away than take what belongs to you

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Some words will cut you down like you were only in the way
Why should I stand ths ground, it won't hurt as much to say

You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done

Sometimes we're blinded by the very thing we need to see
I finally realized that you need it more than you need me

D A G A D A G A
You can have it, I don't want it, and when you've got it, I'll be gone
Bm A D G D A Bm G
It won't matter what you're saying when the damage has all been done
D A G(9) Asus - A
The damage has all been done

D A G A D A G A Bm A D G D A D.
