(VERSE 1)
EmBDA
Smoked my last cigarette, sat in bed for a while,
CGAB
Thought of your face and that brought me a smile,
EmBDA
Wanted another one, fell back asleep instead,
CGAB
Woke and found you sitting there on the bed
(CHORUS)
DAEB
Cigarette, cigarette, burning up time.
DAEB
Cigarette, cigarette, watch the smoke climb.
DAEB
Cigarette, cigarette, wasting away...
DAEB
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down,
DABC#
only one hour 'til you're leavin' this town.
(VERSE 2)
Walked to the corner store, bought us another pack,
Held my arm 'round you as we headed back.
I tried to change your mind, didn't want you to go,
I love you more, I think, than you will ever know.
(CHORUS)
(BRIDGE)
DAEB
Ah, ah, ah, ah,
DAEB
Ah, ah, a-a-ah, a-ah,
DAEB
Ah, ah, ah, ah,
DAEB
Just like this cigarette, our time is running down,
DABC#
only one hour 'til you're leavin' this town.
EmBDA
Smoked one last cigarette, sat in bed for a while,
CGAB
Thought of your face and that brought me a smile.
