Tom: A
Introdução: Am G
Am G
I don't keep much stuff around
Am G
I value my portability
Am G
But I will say that I have saved
Am G
Every letter you ever wrote to me
Am G
The one you left on my windshield
Am G
Outside of that little motel
Am G
Is in the pocket of my old gig bag
Am G
From back when life was more soft shelled
Am F
Letters littered with little lewd pictures
Am F
Drawn by the ghost of Woody Guthrie
Am F
Who would use your big thick hand
G F
Just to draw one or two for me
Am G
And I think of your letters as love letters
Am G
Which is how I think of songs
Am G
In that it is the writing of them
Am G
That tends to carry us along
Am G
And I dance to one of your old tunes
Am G
With my true love on our wedding day
Am G
And your voice sang the way my heart would sing
Am G
If it finally knew just what to say
Am F
Two people pulled over on the same night
Am F
To look up at the same stars
Am F
They both found their wheels were spinning in a soft shoulder
G F
When they both got back into their cars
Am F
And they missed fate's appointed rendezvous
Am F
And then a whole lotta time went by
Am F
And one day they were done worshipping the landscape
G
And they just put down their hands
F
And moved into the sky
F
And they had barely said hello
Am
And it was time to say goodbye
