Write a (Am7)let ter;

Tell you (C5)ev ’ry thing is (Gm6)fine.

Be at (C5)ten tive to the (Em7)dis tance.

(Gm7)Send my (C13)love with ev ’ry (F7)line.

Ev ’ry (Fm6)word should bring you (C)clos er and ca (E7sus4)ress you

(E)with its (Am7)tone.

or (C5)Noth ing should re (Em7)mind you

that (G7sus4)I am here a (Am7)lone.

I can’t (Am7)tell you

what I’m (C5)feel ing.

I can’t (C5)talk a bout the (Gm6)war;

how the (C5)peal ing of the (Em7)church bells

(Gm7)brings the (C13)bat tle to our (F7)door.

I don’t (Fm6)know which part is (C)hard er: what I (E7sus4)know or

(Em7)Count ing (F)days,

pray ing for (Em9)news.

Is this the (F)life

we meant to (Bb)choose?

Do you (Am7)know how much I (C5)miss you

The (C5)night seems so much (Em7)long er

now that (G7sus4)I am here
