The Last Letter Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Why[G] do[C] you treat me
as if I were only a [G]friend?
What have I done
that has made you so different
and [C]cold?
Sometimes I wonder
if you'll be contented again
[F]Wil[G]l you be happy
when you are wizard and [C]all?
I cannot offer you diamonds
and mansions so [G]fine
I cannot offer you clothes
that a rich man might [C]give
But if you say that you long
to forever be [F]mine
[G]Think of the heartaches, the tears,
and the sorrows you've [C]saved.
While I am writing this letter,
I think of [G]the past,
And of the promises
that you are breaking so [C]brave.
And to this whole world
I'll soon say my farewell at [F]last.
[G]I will be gone when you read
this last letter from [C]me.
When you are lonely and tired
of another man's [G]gold.
When you are weary,
remember this letter, my [C]own
Don't try to answer, I've suffered,
and anguish un[F]fold
[G]If you don't love me,
I wish you would leave me [C]alone.
While I am writing this letter,
I think of the [G]past,
And of the promises
that you are breaking so [C]free.
And to this old world
I'll soon say my last [F]farewell
[G]I will be gone when you read
this last letter brought [C]me
