[Intro] G  C  G  D

G
Honey, now that your shackles are gone
C
And you're out there on your own
           G
Won't you let me know
               D
If things get hard
G
Honey, now that your shackle's been lifted
C
You're a sweet young thing and you're oh so gifted
          G
Will you let me know
                D
If things turn bad

[Pre-Estribillo]

Am                                  G
I wasn't looking for trouble, but trouble came
Am                                      G
I wasn't looking to change, I'll never be the same
Em7                     Am  C      G
But life's not what you make it, baby

[Estribillo]

Em7
Send me a postcard
C                             G
When you get to where you're going
Em7
Send me a line
    Am                 C     G
To everything you've left behind

G
Honey, now that I've found my way
      C
And I miss you more than I can say
           G
Won't you promise to
                 D
Say a prayer for me
G
Honey, now that the morning's come
C
We're both still out on the run
           G
Won't you let me know
             D
If you feel free

[Pre-Estribillo]

          Am                       G
We were looking to mend it but we tore it apart
    Am                   G
And I went and broke my own goddamned heart
Em7                       Am  C      G
See, life's not what you make it, baby

[Estribillo]

Em7
Send me a postcard
C                             G
When you get to where you're going

[Puente]

G
I was just a kid when I fell for you
         C
I'm not much older now but even then I knew
          G                          D
That the road was steep and full of stride

[Pre-Estribillo]

         Am                                   G
I never knew what to say, could never get it right
         Am                G
And I'm alone again at the end of night
Em7                      Am  C      G
But life's not what you make it, baby

[Estribillo]

Em7
Send me a postcard
C                             G
When you get to where you're going
Em7
Send me a line
    Am                 C     G
To everything you've left behind
