And on that [C]lovely night [D]in June
Oh he loved her [G]so

One year since they had wed
He packed [C]envelopes and cigarettes

Each week that I am gone
And I [C]promise you'll feel [D]better
When the postman [G]comes"

The [G]war had passed on slowly and
His boots had lost their tread
[C]But still he wrote his letters, this
Week this one had said
[G]"You are always with me even
When I feel alone
And this [C]rifle bears a burden and
It's heavy on my soul
But [G]you won't have to miss me
As once this war is won
[C]We will be [D]together when the
postman [G]comes"

If you've received this letter

When the [G]postman comes
When the postman comes
