Lyrics

When the (Cm)last ea gle flies

o ver the last

crumb ling moun tain,

and the (Cm)last li on roars,

at the (Abmaj7)last

dus ty foun tain.

In the (Cm)sha dow of the (Ebsus2)for est

though she (Abmaj7)may be old and (Ebsus2)worn,

they will (Fm7)stare un be (Ebsus2)liev ing

at the (Abmaj7)last u ni corn.

When the (Cm)first breath of win ter

through the (Abmaj7)flow ers is ic ing,

and you (Cm)look to the north

and a (Abmaj7)pale moon is ris ing,

and it (Cm)seems like all is (Ebsus2)dy ing,

and would (Abmaj7)leave the world to (Ebsus2)mourn,

in the (Fm7)dis tance hear the (Ebsus2)laugh ter

of the (Abmaj7)last u ni corn.

(Bb)I’m a (Eb)live,

I’m a (Ab)live.

(Bb)When the (Cm)last moon is cast

o ver the last

star of morn ing,

and the (Cm)fu ture has passed with out e ven a last

des p’rate warn ing,

then (Cm)look in to the (Ebsus2)sky where through the (Abmaj7)clouds a path is (Ebsus2)torn,

look and (Fm7)see her how she (Ebsus2)spar kles,

it’s the (Abmaj7)last u ni corn.

(Bb)I’m a (Eb)live,

I’m a (Ab)live.

About β€œThe Last Unicorn”

Can I sing "The Last Unicorn" karaoke-style with the lyrics on screen?
Yes β€” Karaoke mode puts the lyrics of "The Last Unicorn" on screen a line at a time and lights up each word in time, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word and the chord shown just above. The piano backing plays underneath in Ab, and you can transpose it to fit your voice.
What key is the piano accompaniment for "The Last Unicorn" by America in?
The backing track is in Ab at 98 BPM. If that doesn't sit in your vocal range, use the live transpose control to shift up or down semitones β€” the accompaniment moves with the new key automatically.
Can I sing over "The Last Unicorn" with this accompaniment?
Yes β€” that's exactly what it's built for. The vocal melody is muted by default so you can sing freely. Need a pitch reference? Tap the mic icon to bring the melody back in at a lower volume.
Is this a karaoke version of "The Last Unicorn"?
Effectively yes β€” it's the piano-only backing for "The Last Unicorn", with no vocals. You can also slow it down to practice tricky verses, then bring it back to full tempo.
Can I use "The Last Unicorn" as a backing track for my instrument?
Absolutely. Singers, guitarists, violinists, wind players, and instrumental practice in general all work β€” the piano holds the harmony so you can carry the melody on whatever instrument you play.

Yes β€” this is a free karaoke slide for "The Last Unicorn" by America. The lyrics appear on screen a line at a time and each word lights up exactly when it's sung, with a bouncing ball leading you word to word. A backing plays underneath so you can just sing.
Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
It does β€” a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
Can I change the key of "The Last Unicorn" to match my voice or capo?
Yes. The original is in Ab, but the live transpose control shifts the whole song up or down semitones until the melody sits in your range (or maps to an easier guitar shape / capo position) β€” the on-screen chords and the backing move with it.
Can I slow "The Last Unicorn" down to learn the words and chords?
Yes β€” the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
