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

VERSE:
C# F# C# C#
It wouldn't be a stretch to say I need you
A#m F# C# C#
It wouldn't be a lie to say I feel weak
G# C#
But it would sound a whole lot truer

And when I close my eyes,

Before I left your side

Just tell me that you want me back now

And I'll be alri-i-ight
