Letters From Home

G Cadd9 G Cadd9

[Verse 1]
G
 My dearest son it’s almost June,
 I hope this letter catches up with 
        Cadd9
you, and finds you well
G
 It’s been dry but they’re callin’ 
for rain
 And everything’s the same ol’ same 
  Cadd9
in Johnsonville
Em7/B             D              
 Your stubborn ol’ Daddy ain’t 
      Cadd9
said too much
                         Am
 But I’m sure you know he sends his 
love
             D  Dsus4 D          
 And she goes on,      in a 
      G
letter from home

[Pre-Chorus[
Cadd9
 I hold it up and show my buddies,
     Cadd9
 Like we ain’t scared and our boots 
ain’t muddy
    G                           
 And they all laugh like there’s 
D/F#
somethin’ funny,
          Em7/B                  
 About the way I talk, when I say 
                Cadd9
Momma sends her best yall

[Chorus]
Cadd9
 I fold it up and put it in my shirt
     Cadd9
 Pick up my gun and get back to work
G      D/F#                Em7/B
 And it keeps me drivin’ on
Continúa después del anuncio
           Cadd9 D            G  
 Waitin’ on,      letters from 
   Cadd9 G Cadd9
home

[Verse 2]
G
 My dearest love it’s almost dawn,
 I’ve been lying here all night 
               Cadd9
long, wonderin’ where you might be
G
 I saw your Momma and I showed her 
the ring
 Man on the television said some 
      Cadd9
thing, so I couldn’t sleep
Em7/B         D            
 But I’ll be alright I’m just 
          Cadd9
missin’ you
               Am                  
 And this is me kissin’ you, X’s 
 D   Dsus4 D                G
and O’s,      in a letter from home

[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
 I hold it up and show my buddies,
     Cadd9
 Like we ain’t scared and our boots 
ain’t muddy
    G                         D/F#
 And they all laugh cause’ you call 
me honey
         Em7/B                 
 But they take it hard, cause I 
               Cadd9
don’t read the good parts

[Chorus]
Cadd9
 I fold it up and put it in my shirt
     Cadd9
 Pick up my gun and get back to work
G      D/F#                Em7/B
 And it keeps me drivin’ on
           Cadd9 D            G
 Waitin’ on,      letters from home

[Verse 3]
Cadd9
 Dear son I know I ain’t written
    Cadd9
 And sittin’ here tonight alone in 
the kitchen
    G              D/F#
 It occurs to me, I might not have 
said it
   Em7/B                    Cadd9
 So I’ll say it now, son you make me
 proud

[Pre-Chorus]
Cadd9
 I hold it up and show my buddies,
     Cadd9
 Like we ain’t scared and our boots 
ain’t muddy
       G                      D/F#
 But no one laughs cause there ain’t
 nothin’ funny
       Em7/B                     
 When a soldier cries, and I just
Cadd9
 wipe my eyes

[Chorus]
Cadd9
 I fold it up and put it in my shirt
     Cadd9
 Pick up my gun and get back to work
G      D/F#                Em7/B
 And it keeps me drivin’ on
           Cadd9 D Dsus4 D      
 Waitin’ on,
