VERSE:
G# C# G# G#
We've been trading letters now forever
Fm C# G# G#
And I've been on this job for much too long
D# G#
But one of these days, I'ma
D# G#
I'm gonna get paid, then I'll
C# C# G# D# D#
I'll finally bring a little money home
PRE-CHORUS:
G# C# G# G#
And now I'm not so sure I shoulda left you
Fm C# G# G#
'Cause now I'm not so sure you'll want me back
D# G#
And even though we trade these letters
D# G#
And each one makes me feel a bit better
C# G# D#
There's something I would like to send instead

It wouldn't be a stretch to say I need you

BREAK:
Fm C#
And when I close my eyes,
G#
I can almost hear you
D#
singing me a country love song,

Singing to me like you used too

Before I went away,

Before I left your side
D#
Just tell me that you want me back now
Fm
And I'll be alri-i-ight
