Verse 1:
 G                C          D                        
   
Girl, well it's too late to lock your door

no more"
            C      D               G              Em D
You always let him in before, now didn't ya'

sang before
C                     D                        
He's the last of the hard-core troubadours

Girl, better figure out which is which
G                   C         D        G           
Wherefore art thou Romeo you son of a bitch
       C            D         G

He come to make love on your satin sheets, wake up on
your living room floor

stand beneath your window 'til daylight,
C                     D               Em          
He's the last of the hard-core troubadours

Tell me what you're waitin' for

G                   C           D          G          
         
When he moves off again and he leaves you lonely and

He's the last of the hard-core troubadours
