Intro:  Em  C  G  Em  C  G 


Em      C                    Am             C 
I never thought you were the letter writing type 
Em       C                 Am                 C 
So now I see the words you choose the way you write 
Em              Bm                   C            G 
So I started to write back about the trees in the snow 
Em          Bm                         C                       G 
And I saw a bird, couldn't say what it was but I thought you'd know 
             Am         C    G 
You always surprised me 

                  Em       C     G     Em   C     G     Em        C    G  
                And if I wrote you;  if I wrote you;  you would know me 
                                Em        C    G 
                  And you would not write me again 

Em           C               Am              C 
And when the spring came and flooded all the streams 
Em                C                 Am               C                    
It's like how you got the night you told me all your dreams 
Em           Bm               C            G 
And when the barn roof sagged after an icy bout 
Em                Bm                         C                      G 
It's like how you shrugged when you knew the truth was the only way out 
Am          C            G 
But not the only way, oh no 

Chorus 

Em          C               Am      C 
We drew our arms around the bastard sons 
Em       C                  Am     C 
We never would drink to the chosen ones 
Em                Bm             C             G 
Well you know the way I went was not the way I planned 
Em                Bm           C                 G 
But I thought the world needed love and a steady hand 

       Am     C     G 
                 So I'm steady now 
                Em       C    G    Em       C    G     Em    C    G 
                And I'm so happy;  I had to tell you;  and I love you 
                             Em        C    G 
                And you will not write me again 
                         Em        C    G     Em   C   G 
                You will not write me again 
                         Em        C    G 
                You will not write me again
