My dear son, it's almost June
I hope this letter catches up with you
[F] And finds you well
[C] It's been dry, but they're calling for rain
And everything's the same, oh same
[F] Just feel
[Am] Your stubborn [G] old daddy ain't said [C] too much
But I'm sure [D] you know he sends his love
And she [G] goes on
In a letter [C] from home
[F] I hold it up and show my buddies
Like we ain't scared of nothin'
[C]

My dearest [G] love, it's almost dawn

[C] saw your mama [D] and I showed her the [C] ring
Man on the television said something
[F] So I couldn't sleep
[Am] But I'll be [G] alright, I'm just [F] missin'
