[Eb] I hold this letter in my [Ab] hand, a clear petition, a [Eb] kind of prayer.
Hope it does as I [Ab] imply, losing her again is more than I can [Eb] bear.
It's the cold wire that [Ab] pressed my lips against her [Eb] name.
Two hundred words we live in [Ab] hope, the sky hangs heavy with rain.
[Eb] Love letter, love, [Ab]
go get her, go [Ab] get her.
[Eb] Love letter, love, [Ab]
[Eb] go tell her, go [Bb] tell her.
[Eb] A wicked wind whips up the [Ab] hill, a handful of hopeful [Eb] words,
I love her and I [Ab] always will, the sky is ready to [Eb] burst.
Said something I did not mean [Ab] to say, said something I did not mean [Eb] to say,
said something I did not mean [Ab] to say.
It all came out the [Eb] wrong way.
Love letter, love, [Ab] go
[Eb] get her, go get her.
Love letter, love, [Ab] go
[Eb] tell her, go [Bb] tell her.
Bring
[Eb] your kisses down [Ab] upon me, bring your kisses down [Eb] in storms,
and for all I'll come [Ab] before me in your slowly fading [Eb] forms.
Going out of my [Ab] mind will leave me [Eb] standing in the rain
with a letter and a [Ab] prayer whispered on the wind.
[Bb] Come back to [Ab] me,
[Bb] come back to [Ab] me.
[Bb] Oh baby, [Ab] please come [Bb] back to [Eb] me.
