F# D#m
The last leaf clings to the bough
F# A#m
Just one leaf, that's all there is now
B C#
And my last hope lives with that
F# D#m
lonely leaf, lonely leaf
B E-
With the last leaf that clings to the bough.
F# D#m
Last summer beneath this tree
F# A#m
My love said she'd come back to me
B C#
Before the leaves of autumn touched
F# D#m
the ground, touched the ground
B F#
My love promised she's be homeward bound.
[Chorus]
D E F#
Then one by one the leaves began to fall,
D E B-break
And now that winter's come to call.
F# D#m
The last leaf that clings to the bough
F# A#m
Just one leaf, that's all there is now.
B C#
Will my last hope fall with that
F# D#m
lonely leaf, lonely leaf?

With the last leaf, the last leaf,
B pause B E- D#m
With the last leaf that clings to the bough

Bough, bough, bough . . . (FADE)
