Subject: Lyr/Chords Add: NO LETTER IN THE MAIL
From: chico
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]
