VERSE:
F# B F# F#
We've been trading letters now forever

But one of these days, I'ma
C# F#
I'm gonna get paid, then I'll
B B F# C# C#
I'll finally bring a little money home
PRE-CHORUS:
F# B F# F#
And now I'm not so sure I shoulda left you

C# F#
And each one makes me feel a bit better

There's something I would like to send instead

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

And when I close my eyes,
