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

Then one by one the leaves began to fall,
G A B-break
And now that winter's come to call.
B G#m
The last leaf that clings to the bough
B D#m
Just one leaf, that's all there is now.
E F#
Will my last hope fall with that
B G#m
lonely leaf, lonely leaf?

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

Bough, bough, bough . . . (FADE)
