-----------------------------------
Eb Ab
I hold this letter in my hand
Eb
A plea, a petition, a kind of prayer
Ab
I hope it does as I have planned
Losing her again is more than I can bear
Eb Ab
I kiss the cold, white envelope
Eb
I press my lips against her name
Ab
Two hundred words. We live in hope
Eb
The sky hangs heavy with rain
Eb Ab
Love Letter Love Letter
Eb Ab
Go get her Go get her
Eb A
Love Letter Love Letter
Eb Bb - Ab
Go tell her Go tell her
Eb Ab
A wicked wind whips up the hill
Eb
A handful of hopeful words
Ab
I love her and I always will
The sky is ready to burst
Eb
Said something I did not mean to say
Ab
Said something I did not mean to say
Eb
Said something I did not mean to say
Ab
It all came out the wrong way
Eb Ab
Love Letter Love letter
Eb Ab
Go get her Go get her
Eb Ab
Love Letter Love letter
Eb Bb - Ab
Go tell her Go tell her
Rain your kisses down upon me
Rain your kisses down in storms
And for all who'll come before me
In your slowly fading forms
I'm going out of my mind
Will leave me standing in
The rain with a letter and a prayer
Whispered on the wind
Bb Ab
Come back to me
Bb Ab
Come back to me
Bb Ab Bb Eb
O baby please come back to me
