DT Lyrics:





Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: NO LETTER IN THE MAIL
From: chico
Date: 23 Jul 05 - 04:49 AM

    D
No answer to my letter
   A7                D
To soothe my aching heart
Oh why did God ever permit
True love like ours to part

    G             D
No letter in the mail today
   G                D
No answer from my love
Bm                D
Nobody knows what I've been through
    A       7    D
No one but God above

This is what I wrote to her
I know that I'm to blame
I know that I have brok'n your heart
And then I signed my name

I'm traveling down this road today
Yes traveling my last time
If there's no letter in the box
I'm leaving this world behind


[Bill Carlisle & Bobby Gregory, recorded by Bill Monroe, October 7, 1940]
