Introdução:
C G7
Why do you treat me as if I were only a friend
C
What have I done that's made you so different and cold
C7 F
Sometimes I wonder if you'll be contented again
G7 C
Or will you be happy when you are withered and old
G7
I cannot offer you diamonds and mansions so fine
C
And I cannot offer you clothes that your young body craves
C7 F
But if you'll say that you long to forever be mine
G7 C
Just think of the heartaches the tears and the sorrow you'll save
G7
When you are weary and tired of another man's gold
C
And when you get lonely remember this letter my own
C7 F
But don't try to answer though I've suffered anguish untold
G7 C
If you don't love me then why don't you leave me alone
G7
As I am writing this letter I think of the past
C
And of the promises that you are breaking so free
C7 F
But to this old world I'll soon say my farewell at last
G7 C
I will be gone when you read this last letter from me
