[Gm] [Eb] [Cm] [Ab] [Eb]
[Cm] [Ab] [Bb]
[Eb] Oh, I need to write a letter, [Ab] put it [Eb] down in black and white.
No phone call just [Cm] won't cut it, [Ab] not the way I feel [Bb] tonight.
[Ab] A letter to [Gm] my mama [Cm] from the bottom [Gm] of [F] my [D] heart.
[Fm] I'm sorry, [Gm] it's a real good [Eb] place [Bb] to start.
I'm [Eb] sorry I [Cm] was selfish, [Ab] just chalk it up [Eb] to you.
I got too old [Cm] to need you, [Ab] that's just running from [Bb] the truth.
[Ab] I'm [Eb] sorry things didn't work out [Cm] for [Bb] you, my [F] old man.
[Ab] Sometimes life [Eb] don't turn out [Bb] like you planned.
[Cm] Looking [G] back I wonder how [Cm] you ever [F] pulled us through.
[Ab] I can't [Bb] imagine walking [Eb] in your shoes.
[Cm] If I could stop [G] this pain from shaking, [Cm] I'd write these [F] words down too.
[Fm] There's no one in [Eb] this world I love like you.
[Bb] [Ab] [Eb] Oh, I've written down [Cm] the memories of [Ab] these [Eb] 60 some odd years.
Trying hard to just say [Cm] thank you [Ab] as I wipe [Eb] away [Bb] the tears.
[Ab] I hear my [Eb] grandson calling, [Cm] so I guess [Gm] I better [F] go.
[Fm] I can never pay you [Eb] back [Ab] the love.
[Bb] [Ab] [Bb] [Eb] [Cm]

[Bb] [Eb] Oh, I finished up the letter, put it down in black and white.
No phone call [Cm] wouldn't cut it, [Ab]
not the way I feel [Bb] tonight.
[Ab] A letter [Eb] to my mama [Cm] from the bottom [Gm] of [F] my heart.
[Cm] [Eb] The very bottom [Gm] of [F] my heart.
[Cm] [Gm] The very bottom of my heart.
