Last Man Standing

 D                   G              Em        A
 There's a tyre on a rope above the swimming hole
  D               G        Em        A
 where Danny and Dave and Tim would go
  D       G            Em         A
 make up stories bout girls they know
  Em                 G
 brothers and best friends
  D                  G          Em       A
 Now the dams dried up and the rope is frayed
  D         G         Em   A
 Danny and Dave they ran away
  D     G       Em      A
 Timmy he just had to stay

  D                G                Em           A
 he was raised on this land and he aint leaving now
  D             G         Em            A
 all the other boys have packed up and gone
  Em                   G

                          D        G  Em  A

  D            G           Em     A
 Mumma took a job at the general store
  D             G             Em          A
 Timmy built a ramp from the front porch door
  D                G              Em     A
 cause daddy cant do much round here anymore
  Em                G
 he just sits and stares
          D          G            Em    A
 And it breaks his heart not to lend a hand
                   D        G        Em       A
 he says "There's too much work for just one man"

 Timmy says "dad don't you understand?"


  D                      G       Em      A
 Cause I'm the last man standing on this ground
   D               G              Em           A
 I was raised on this land and I wont let you down
  D              G         Em           A
 all your other boys have packed up and gone
  Em                          G
 you can count on me to carry on
                           D
 cause I'm the last man standing


  Em                          A
 Sometimes late at night he dreams
                    Em
 of places he wont see
                                  G      A
 but he says "all they've got is me"
