Airmail To Heaven

	  		C 
A letter was written by a little girl's hand 

       F                              C 
It was sealed with her little heart's love 

     G7                   C 
Said airmail to heaven to daddy 

        D7                    G7 
To your new home somewhere up above 


     C 
As a postman I knew that it couldn't be mailed 

       F                         C 
And so I opened the letter and I read 

F              C 
To my surprise tears filled my eyes 

       G7                   C 
Here's what the little girl said 


     C 
Dear daddy mommy now loves someone new 

    F                           C 
She says that you're not coming home 

    G7                C 
She told me to try to understand 

    D7                  G7 
She can't go on living alone 


       C 
Please daddy don't be mad at mommy 

          F                          C 
She needs someone for all she's been through 

      F             C 
Cause he will never take your place 

         G7                  C 
He'll be just filling in for you 


       C 
I hope that you can forgive her 

       F                        C 
So I'm sealing this letter with love 

        G7                    C 
And I'm sending it airmail to heaven 

        D7                    G7 
To your new home somewhere up above  


     C 
Well I finished and I folded the letter 

    F                     C 
The tears rolling down my face 

    F                     C 
For I was the new man she mentioned 

        G7                 C 
Who was taking her daddy's place 


    F                     C 
For I was the new man she mentioned 

        G7                 C 
Who was taking her daddy's place
