INTRO: A
#1.
A D A
The angels were singin' a sad country song,
E
it sounded like somethin' of yours.
A D
With a conscience as clear as the tear in
A E A
your eye and a heart beatin' golden and pure.
#2.
A D
And I felt all the feelin's we set down in
A E
song, torn from the body and soul.
A D
And the fortunes that faded like stars into
A E A
daylight and teardrops we turned into gold.
CHORUS:
D A
Every hard rockin' wreck on the highway.
A E
Every heartbroken rule of the road.
A D
Every true thing we wrote on the wind is
A
still singin.'
E A
Love is the last thing to go.
INTERLUDE: A D
#3.
D G D
Love is the reason we happened at all.
D A
It paid for the damage we done.
D G
And it bought us the freedom to fall into
D A D
grace on our way to our place in the sun.
CHORUS:
G D
Every hard rockin' wreck on the highway.
D A
Every heartbroken rule of the road.
D G
Every true thing we wrote on the wind is
D
still singin.'
A D
Love is the last thing to go.
