Intro
[C] [G] [Am] [Em] [F]
Verse 1
[C]She wrote to me and [G]said in a letter
That she [Am]wanted to see if [F]she could do better
She [C]thought that she could if [G]only I'd let her
And [Am]that's where she stood for [F]worse or for better
And [G]I couldn't argue cause [C]deep down I knew
As [Dm]much as it pained me well [G7]I felt it too
Chorus
And [C]oh my [Am]love
We?ve got to[Em] be more careful
[Bb]In the future
And [C]oh how [Am]much
It helps to [Em]talk about it
[Bb]Let it out
Verse 2
[C]Yesterday I found a [G]picture of me
When [Am]I was a baby and [F]I was to be
A [C]man with no home a[G]drift in the sea
No [Am]plan of his own so [F]careless and free
And [G]it makes me sad but then [C]deep down I know
That [Dm]all is not lost and there's [G7]still room to grow
Chorus
And [C]oh my [Am]love
We've got to [Em]be more careful
[Bb]In the future
And [C]oh how [Am]much
It helps to [Em]talk about it
[Bb]Get it out
Solo
[C] [G] [Am] [Em] [F]
Verse 3
[C]We could be lovers or [G]we could be friends
[Am]Smother each other but [F]that's how it ends
[C]Could be the wrong words that [G]mean everything
Like [Am]two lonely songbirds that [F]don't wanna sing
And [G]it?s hard to swallow but [C]deep down inside
I [Dm]know that it's true and it [G7]can't be denied
Chorus
[C]Oh my [Am]love
We've got to [Em]be more careful
[Bb]In the future
And [C]oh how [Am]much
It helps to [Em]talk about it
[Bb]Let it out
And I'm [C]so proud [Am]of
The way we [Em]face the truth
[Bb]About our future
And [C]so my [Am]love
What will we [Em]do without it?
[Bb]Do without it?
