 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.
 Now how the chords are played through the song:
There's  a grey horse standin'  still
As  a soldier climbs  in the saddle for one  last ride
As  the rain pours off  his hat
You  can see the shadows  of the past written in  his eyes
Now  the cannons  are silent
His friends  are all gone
Gotta put  it all behind him
If  he ever  wants to find his way home
He's  the last rebel on the road
Just  a boy with his old  guitar
Keeps  to himself but everybody takes  him wrong
But  he carries on
Got  a dream that will  never die
Can't  change him, no  use in stayin' where you don't  belong
Now  he's rollin'  down the highway
Gone  too far  too fast
 x 2
 No one will ever find him, he'll never look back
'Cause  he's the last rebel
And  he's all alone
He's  the last rebel
His  friends are all gone
He's  the last rebel
The  last rebel on the road
There'll  never be another like  him
He's  the last of a dying breed
Ain't  no use in tryin' to tame  him
'Cause  he's the last rebel
And he's  all alone
He's  the  last rebel
His  friends  are all gone
He's  the  last rebel
 Music keeps going alternating between the Am G C progression and the F G
 progression.
 Hope you like it...
