i wrote A [ G ] letter on a nothing [ D ] day
i asked some [ G ] body “could you send my [ D ] letter away?”
“you are too [ G ] young to put all of your [ D ] hopes in just [ G ] one envelope” [ D ]
i said good [ G ] bye to someone that i [ D ] love
it’s not just [ G ] me , i tell you it’s the [ D ] both of us
and it was [ G ] hard like coming off the [ D ] pills that you [ G ] take to stay [ D ] happy
someone A [ G ] bove has seen me do al [ D ] right
someone A [ G ] bove is looking with A [ D ] tender eye
upon her [ G ] face , you may think you’re A [ D ] lone but you [ G ] may think A [ D ] gain
{c : chorus}
if i could do just [ G ] one near perfect thing i’d be [ D ] happy
they’d write it on my [ G ] grave , or when they scattered my [ D ] ashes
on second thoughts i’d [ Em ] rather hang about and be [ G ] there with my best
friend if she [ D ] wants me
{c : verse}
and far A [ G ] way somebody read the [ D ] letter
he conde [ G ] scends to read the words i [ D ] wrote about him
and if he [ G ] smiles , it’s no more than A [ D ] genius [ G ] deserves
for all your [ D ] curious [ G ] nerve and your [ D ] passion
i’m going [ G ] deaf , you’re growing melan [ D ] choly
things fall A [ G ] part , i don’t know why we [ D ] bother at all
but life is [ G ] good and “it’s always worth [ D ] living at [ G ] least for A [ D ] while”
{c : chorus}
if i could do just [ G ] one near perfect thing i’d be [ D ] happy
they’d write it on my [ G ] grave , or when they scattered my [ D ] ashes
on second thoughts i’d [ Em ] rather hang about and be [ G ] there with my best
friend if she [ D ] wants me
if you think [ G ] to yourself “what should i [ D ] do now?”
then take the ba [ G ] ton , girl , you better [ D ] run with it
there is no [ G ] point in standing in the [ D ] past cause it’s [ G ] over and [ D ] done with
i took A [ G ] book and went into the [ D ] forest
i climbed the [ G ] hill , i wanted to look [ D ] down on you
but all i [ G ] saw was twenty miles of [ D ] wilderness [ G ] so i went [ D ] home
