Last Kiss

Pearl Jam

                     G                               Em
              Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
            C                                 D
              The Lord took her away from me
            G                                           Em
              She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
                  C                                         D                         G   (Drum break)
              So I can see my baby when I leave this world

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, up straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead

I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The screamin' tires, the bustin' glass
The painful scream that I heard last

              Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
              The Lord took her away from me
              She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
              So I can see my baby when I leave this world

When I woke up, the rain was pourin' down
There were people standing all around
Something warm rollin' through my eyes
But somehow I found my baby that night

I lifted her head, she looked at me and said
"Hold me darling just a little while"
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I would miss

But now she's gone, even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life that night

              Oh, where oh where can my baby be?
              The Lord took her away from me
              She's gone to heaven, so I got to be good
              So I can see my baby when I leave this world
                    Oooh~ ooooh~
