The Last Letter Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Why [A]do [D]you treat me
as if I were only a [A]friend?
What have I done
that has made you so different
and [D]cold?
Sometimes I wonder
if you'll be contented [G]again
Will [A]you be happy
when you are withered and [D]old
I cannot offer you diamonds
or mansions so fine
[A]I cannot offer you clothes
that your young body [D]craves
But if you promise
and long to forever be [G]mine
Think [A]of the heartaches, the sorrows,
and the teardrops you'll
[D]see[A]
[D][G][A]
[D]
When you are weary and tired
of another man's [A]gold
When you are lonely,
remember this letter, my [D]own
Don't try to answer,
though I suffer anguish un[G]told
[A]If you don't love me,
I wish you would leave me [D]alone
While I am writing this letter,
I'll think of [A]the past
And of the promises
that you are breaking so [D]free
But to this old world,
I'll soon say my farewell at [G]last
I [A]will be gone
when you read this last letter from [D]me.
