A lot of songs end on a V chord. The ones I've been playing lately include: Four Strong Winds by Ian & Sylvia; Dreamland Express by John Denver, I Ain't Marching Anymore by Phil Ochs and All Night Long by Tom Paxton. These are all songs in the key of G that ends on D.

I think Phil Ochs often uses unusual chord progression. I Ain't Marching Anymore ends on a V chord; One Way Ticket Home, which is in the key of D, begins with a II chord (Em) and ends on a VI chord (Bm). Phil's Tape from California, in the key of E, has one of the strangest chord progression I've ever known. It ends on a IV chord (A). It also uses C, D and G chords a lot, but its chord progression is much more complicated than I Don't Want Your Pardon:

  E
  Who's that coming down the road?
    D               A
  A sailor from the sea.
  D                   F#m
  He looks a lot like me,
               E         G             E
  I'd know him anywhere, had to stare.
  
  Feathers on his fingertips,
    D               A
  A halo 'round his spine.
  D                     F#m
  He must have lost his mind;
               E         G           C#m
  He should be put away, right away.
  
  In the corner of the night,
  D                Bm
  He handed me his waterpipe;
  F#m                     Bm             E
  His eyes were searching deep inside my head.
                       Am
  Here's what he said:
  
  "Sorry, I can't stop and talk now -
         D
  I'm in kind of a hurry anyhow,
           C          G             A     
  But I'll send you a tape from California."
  
  
           D            C             D            C
  From the mirror of my mantle to the velvet on my bed,
  D              C               Am           E 
  Trapped upon a stolen stage, a Barrymore at desk.
  A                   G           A                   G
  My rhymes are all repeating, my ballads are growing blind.
  G#m                  A          F#m             B7
  Words have turned to water, the women turned to wine.
