Intro: (G)

Em                    C9                 Em
It's harder than I thought,to be so far away
                              C9
So I thought I'd write this letter to you and explain
Em                C9                          Em
For me it wasn't easy to raise the flag and leave
                               C9
But I thought that you should know how much you mean to me

I won't be there to see you dance and hear you sing the songs we love
    F                                              C
So please be strong and it won't be long till I´m home again
     C                                  G
You know you make me proud because you are the one that I depend upon
         F                      C
And when I return, I promise,I never leave you alone again

So I thought I'd write this letter to you and explain
Em             C9                        Em
It was only a moment I turned my head to wipe my eyes and
                     C9
when I looked again I saw your smile that said goodbye

Mama says don't worry cos´ Daddy's brave and he's coming home
       F                             C
But if I could change one thing,I'd never let you go (never let you go)
   C                                 G
I want you here to see me dance and sing along to the songs we love
