G B

Em C B

Em C
those words jump off the letter
G B
that i found behind our bed
Em C D
haunting me they echo in my head
B
in my head.
Em Am G D
its too late to try and work it out
Em Am G D
there's no way to turn this thing around
Em C G D
its all there in the letter that I've found
B
I've memorized it line for line
B Em Am G D
too bad that letter isn't mine, no
when can i then see you
I've been counting the days
i promise you our secret will be safe
no i just cant continue
reading thru my tears
the beating of the letter is so clear
so clear
its too late to try and work it out.
there's no way to turn this thing around
its so hard, there in the letter that I've found
i memorized it line by line
too bad that letter isn't mine.
Em C

D

G B
running never fades those words are here to stay
i hope u find this letter
writing you today
these will be the last words that i say
its too late to try and work it out
there's no way to turn this thing around
its so hard, here in this letter that you've found
its too late to try and work it out
there's no way to turn this thing around
its so hard, here in this letter that you've found.
so memorized it line for line
i wont be there to say goodbye.
