The "C/D" chord is of C major form at the fifth fret - where the fifth string
is a "D", hence my naming. I couldn't find a name for this chord, but it
does work.
Am C/D
There's a grey horse standin' still
C C/D Am F G
As a soldier climbs in the saddle for one last ride
Am C/D
As the rain pours off his hat
C C/D Am C C/D
You can see the shadows of the past written in his eyes
Am G C
Now the cannons are silent
Am G C
His friends are all gone
Am G C
Gotta put it all behind him
Am G F
If he ever wants to find his way home
G Am C/D F G
He's the last rebel on the road
Am C/D
Just a boy with his old guitar
C C/D Am
Keeps to himself but everybody takes him wrong
F G
But he carries on
Am C/D
Got a dream that will never die
C C/D Am C C/D
Can't change him, no use in stayin' where you don't belong
Am G C
Now he's rollin' down the highway
Am G C
Gone too far too fast
Am G C Am G C Am x 2
No one will ever find him, he'll never look back
(chorus)
F
'Cause he's the last rebel
G
And he's all alone
F
He's the last rebel
G
His friends are all gone
F
He's the last rebel
G Am
The last rebel on the road
F G
There'll never be another like him
F G
He's the last of a dying breed
F G
Ain't no use in tryin' to tame him
G
'Cause he's the last rebel
Am G C
And he's all alone
Am G C
He's the last rebel
Am G C
His friends are all gone
Am G C
He's the last rebel
Music keeps going alternating between the Am G C progression and the F G
progression.
Johnny throughs some "ohhhoo ohhhhs" in there over these progressions.
Listen to the song...

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official LYNYRD SKYNYRD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
