As recorded by Willie Nelson (From the 2024 Album LAST LEAF ON THE TREE) [Chorus]
        D         A       D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

G
The autumn took the rest

    D               Bm
But it won't take me

    D        A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree
[Verse 1]
D                          Bm7
When the autumn wind blows

Bm7
They're already gone

G
They flutter to the ground

A
They just can't hang on

             D
When there's nothing in this world

Bm
That I ain't seen

G
I greet all the new ones

         A
That are coming in green
[Chorus]
        D    A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

G
The autumn took the rest

         D            Bm
But they won't take me

               D    A           D
'Cause I'm the last leaf on the tree
[Verse 2]
D
They say I got staying powеr

Bm
 Here on the tree

G
But I'vе been here since Eisenhower

         A
And I've outlived even he
[Chorus]
        D    A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

G
The autumn took the rest

         D            Bm
But they won't take me

        D    A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree
[Verse 3]
D
I fight off the snow

Bm
 I fight off the hail

G
Nothing makes me go

         A
I'm like some vestigial tail

        D
I'll be here through eternity

Bm
If you wanna know how long

G
If they cut down this tree

     A
I'll show up in a song
[Out-Chorus]
        D    A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

G
The autumn took the rest

         D            Bm
But they won't take me

        D    A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

             A           D
I'm the last leaf on the tree

             A           G     D
I'm the last leaf on the tree
