Intro:  C  Am  G  F

C
So here I am writing you this letter
F
Looking for the words to make things better and
Am
Every time I think I've finally found them
F
I find myself staring at a mountain
C
Of crumpled paper with ink stained hands
F
Broken promises and messed up plans
Am
No idea how to get this through
F
All I know is I just gotta tell you

C                                  F
I never meant to say what's on my mind
                                         Am
I wish that I could some how make things right
        G    F
There's no excuse for everything I put you through
C                                     F
I never meant to laugh when I saw you cry
                               Am
I know it's kinda late to apologize
   G         F
I swear it's true, I'm gonna make it up to you

( C  F )

C
Sorry if you think it's kind of shallow
F
But this guilt is getting hard to swallow
Am
I don't know what was going through my head
F
I take the blame for every tear you shed
C
I meant it good but it turned out bad
F
And it cost me the best thing I ever had
Am
No idea how to get this through
F
All I know is I just gotta tell you

C                                  F
