Em D Em
Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you.
G Am Em
Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
Am Em
And I don't want to bother You anymore,
G
I used to hope you'd come back
D
But not anymore Dana.
Same chords through the verses.
My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
Dana, my darling, would be so bad.
Dana my darling I'm writing to you
Cause your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore
Your mother wished: Come visit your father's grave, Dana
Your father disowned you 'cause you have sinned
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
And I hope you won't do those things anymore
Dana My darling I'm waiting for
Em G C D
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
Em G D
How I wish that my Dana was here
Em G C D
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
Em G C
to travel away, faraway

Am Em
No, you can't surprise me anymore
C G
I've seen it all before
Am Em
But it seems I cannot let you go
D Em
Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana
Dm C Bb Dm
And I think that I told you, I'd wait for you forever
C
Now I know someone else's holding you,
Bb Gm
so, for the first time in my life - I must lie
F
Lie's a sin, mess that I am in,
Bb F
Love is not the thing I feel now
Bb F Bb
I promise you: I won't write again 'til the sun sets
F Gm
behind your grave
Same chords as the verse
Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you
I heard you passed away, it was a beautiful day
I'm old and I feel time will come for me
My diary's pages are full of thee
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
to travel away, faraway
