A G#m
Katie's been gone since the spring time;
F#m B7
She wrote one time'n sent her love
A G#m
Katie's been gone for such a long time now.
F#m B7
I wonder what kind of love she's thinkin' of.
A
Dear Katie,
E
If you can hear me,
A E
I can't wait to have ya near me.
A
Oh, Katie, since ya
E
caught that bus,
A Bm C#m
Well, I just don't know how things are with us.
D E7
I'm still here and you're out there.
A G#m
Katie laughed when I said I was lonely.
F#m B7
She said, There's no need t'feel that way.
A G#m
Katie said that I was her only one,
F#m B7
But then I wonder why she didn't wanna stay.
A
Dear Katie,
E
if I'm the only one,
A E
How much longer will you be gone?
A Bm C#m
Oh, Katie, won't ya tell me straight:
f#m B7
How much longer do I have to wait?
D
I'll believe you,
E7
But please come through.
C F Dm G
I know it's wrong to be apart this long;
F Bb D E
You should be here, near me.
A G#m F#m B
Katie's been gone and now her face is slowly fading from my mind.
A G#m F#m B
She's gone to find some newer places, Left the old life far behind.
A E
Dear Katie, dont ya miss your home?
A E
I dont see why you had to roam.
A Bm C#m
Dear Katie, since you've been away
F#m B7
I lose a little something every day
D E
I need you here, but you're still out there.
A E
Dear Katie, please drop me a line,
F#m B7
just write, Love, to tell me you're fine.
A E
Oh, Katie, if you can hear me,
F#m B7
I just cant wait to have you near me.

I can only think where are you,
E F Dm A
What ya do, may be there's someone new.
