190 - The Last Waltz
Verse 1
^ I wonder should I go or should I stay
^ The band has only one more song to play
And then I saw you out the cor-ner of my eye
^ A little girl a-lone and so shy
Chorus
I had the last-- waltz-- with you--
Two lonely peo-ple to-gether
I-- fell in love with you--
The last waltz should last for-ever
Verse 2
^ Thought the love we had– was going strong
Through the good and bad we get a-long
And then the flame of love died in your eyes
My heart was broke in two when you said ‘good-bye’
Chorus
I had the last-- waltz-- with you--
Two lonely peo-ple to-gether
I-- fell in love with you--
The last waltz should last for-ever
Middle 8
It’s all o---ver now, nothing left--- to say---
Just my tears and the orchestra play--ing---
La la la … (over second half of verse)
Chorus
I had the last-- waltz-- with you--
Two lonely peo-ple to-gether
I-- fell in love with you--
The last waltz should last for-ever
(wait 3 bars)
La, la, la, … la la laaaa,
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, laaaa.
Les Reed and Barry Mason
