Capo on 1st fret 
 
Unopened 
 
G			  C 
There's a key in a letter unopened 
       G		      D 
Buried back in an old dresser drawer 
          G				  C 
There's a name stained with tears on that letter 
         G	       C     D	  G 
One that I'm sure I've never seen before 
 
G			       C 
There's no date on that letter unopened 
   G			    D 
My guess is it's faded with years 
      G				   C 
And I can't sleep at night now for wonderin' 
    G		              D      G 
How long has that secret been hiding here 
 
 
(Chorus) 
        D 
Did you love someone, lose someone 
G 
Leave someone waiting 
         A 
Is there somebody's heart out there 
D 
You could have taken 
    G 
The letter says it all 
           C	       G 
Though the words go unspoken 
C	       G       D	G 
You loved me enough to leave it unopened 
 
G				     C 
There's a love that is trust without reason 
          G			      D 
There's a faith that leaves questions unasked 
    	      G				 C 
And though my heart has searched for the answers 
  G			      D	      G	 
I love you too much for these lips to ask 
 
 
(Repeat chorus) 
	G 
Oh, the letter says it all 
	   C	       G 
Though the words go unspoken 
        C       G	  D	   G 
And, I love you enough to leave it unopened
