        C    G           C    C7 
I'm the last leaf on the tree  
    F             
The autumn took the rest  
    C               Am 
But they won't take me  
        C    G           C 
I'm the last leaf on the tree  

C 
When the autumn wind blows  
        Am 
They're already gone  
     F 
They flutter to the ground  
           G 
Cause they can't hang on  
        C 
There's nothing in the world  
     Am 
That I ain't seen  
  F                               G 
I greet all the new ones that are coming in green  

I'm the last leaf on the tree  
The autumn took the rest but they wont take me  
I'm the last leaf on the tree  
They say I got staying power  
Here on the tree  
But I've been here since Eisenhower  
And I've out lived even he  

I'm the last leaf on the tree  
The autumn took the rest but they won't take me  
I'm the last leaf on the tree  

I fight off the snow  
I fight off the hail  
Nothing makes me go  
I'm like some vestigial tail  
I'll be here through eternity  
If you want to know how long  
If they cut down this tree  
I'll show up in a song  

I'm the last leaf on the tree  
The autumn took the rest but they won't take me  
        C    G           C 
I'm the last leaf on the tree  
        C    G           C 
I'm the last leaf on the tree  
        C    G           C 
I'm the last leaf on the tree
