#Intro: Em C G Em C G
[Em]I never [C]thought you were the [Am]letter writing [C]type
[Em]So now I [C]see the words you [Am]choose the way you [C]write
[Em]So I started to [Bm]write back about the [C]trees in the [G]snow
[Em]And I saw a [Bm]bird, couldn't say what it [C]was but I thought you'd [G]know
You always su[Am]rprised me[C][G]
CHORUS: [Em]And if I [C]wrote [G]you; [Em]if I [C]wrote [G]you; [Em]you would [C]know [G]me
And you would [Em]not write [C]me ag[G]ain
[Em]And when the [C]spring came and [Am]flooded all the [C]streams
[Em]It's like how you [C]got the night you [Am]told me all your [C]dreams
[Em]And when the [Bm]barn roof sagged [C]after an icy [G]bout
[Em]It's like how you [Bm]shrugged when you knew the [C]truth was the only way [G]out
[Am]But not the [C]only way, oh [G]no
CHORUS
[Em]We drew our [C]arms around the [Am]bastard [C]sons
[Em]We never [C]would drink to the [Am]chosen [C]ones
[Em]Well you know the [Bm]way I went was [C]not the way I [G]planned
[Em]But I thought the [Bm]world needed [C]love and a steady [G]hand
So I'm [Am]steady [C]now[G]
[Em]And I'm s[C]o hap[G]py; [Em]I had to [C]tell [G]you; [Em]and I [C]love [G]you
And you will [Em]not write [C]me ag[G]ain
You will [Em]not write [C]me ag[G]ain[Em][C][G]
You will [Em]not write [C]me ag[G]ain
