E|E|------------------------------ E|---------------------------------- E|-----------|| Loveletter - Nick Cave E|E|------------------------------ E|---------------------------------- E|-----------||Tabbed by: Frank Couldn't find a tab for this great song from the "No more shall we part"-album, so here it is. Originally a song for piano, but it sounds good on an acoustic guitar as well, especially if played fingerpicking-style to get the bass-notes. I've tabbed just the chords - the piano plays a few notes different here and there. Listen to the record, and enjoy! Tuning: standard (To play along to the record, use a capo on the 1st fret). (Chords relative to capo) D: x00232 D/F#: 200232 (use your thumb to play F# on the E-string)G: 320033 A: x02220 Intro: D D G G x4 Verse 1:D D/F# G I hold this letter in my hand A plea, a petition, a kind ofD prayerD/F# G I hope it does as I have planned Losing her again is more than I can bearD D/F# G I kiss the cold, white envelopeContinues after the adD I press my lips against her nameD/F# G Two hundred words, we live in hope The sky hangs heavy with rain Chorus:D D/F# G Love letter, Love letterD D/F# G Go get her, go get herD D/F# G Love letter, love letterD D/F# A Go tell her, go tell her Verse 2:D D/F# G A wicked wind whips up the hillD A handful of hopeful wordsD/F# G I love her and I always will The sky is ready to burstD D/F# G Said something I did not mean to sayD Say something I did not mean to sayD/F# Said something I did not mean toG say(D) It all came out the wrong way Chorus Verse 3:D D/F# G Rain your kisses down upon meD Rain your kisses down in stormD/F# G And for all who'll come before me In your slowly fading formsD D/F# G I'm going out of my mindD Will leave me standing in the rainD/F# G with a letter and a prayerG Whispered in the wind Outro:A G Come back to meA G Come back to meA G A D Oh, baby, please come back to me
