Intro:
AG
Verse:
AmG
I don't keep much stuff around
AmG
I value my portability
AmG
But I will say that I have saved
AmG
Every letter you ever wrote to me
AmG
The one you left on my windshield
AmG
Outside of that little motel
AmG
Is in the pocket of my old gig bag
AmG
From back when life was more soft shelled
Chorus:
AmF
Letters littered with little lewd pictures
AmF
Drawn by the ghost of Woody Guthrie
AmF
Who would use your big thick hand
GF
Just to draw one or two for me
Interlude:
AGAG
Verse:
AmG
And I think of your letters as love letters
AmG
Which is how I think of songs
AmG
In that it is the writing of them
AmG
That tends to carry us along
AmG
And I dance to one of your old tunes
AmG
With my true love on our wedding day
AmG
And your voice sang the way my heart would sing
AmG
If it finally knew just what to say
Chorus:
AmF
Two people pulled over on the same night
AmF
To look up at the same stars
AmF
They both found their wheels were spinning in a soft shoulder
GF
When they both got back into their cars
AmF
And they missed fate's appointed rendezvous
AmF
And then a whole lotta time went by
AmF
And one day they were done worshipping the landscape
G
And they just put down their hands
F
And moved into the sky
Interlude:
AGAG
Refrain:
F
And they had barely said hello
Am
And it was time to say goodbye
Outro:
AGAGAGAG
End on Am
