[Verse 1]
E                                        B                  E
Crying while I read a letter sent to me, leaving her adress unkown
E                                               B                        E
from my little girl, the sweetest in the world, but she left me here all alone


[Chorus]
A                        E                         B7                         E
oh I'm alone tonight and how I'd like to write, to answer your letter sent to me
E                                                      B7                          E
you never know my dear, how I wish that you were here, please darling come back to me

darling I'm so blue, and a little weary too, don't like my dreams about you
E                                              B                            E
since you went away I've waited night and day, guess that you found someone new


[Chorus]
A                        E                         B7                         E
oh I'm alone tonight and how I'd like to write, to answer your letter sent to me

you never know my dear, how I wish that you were here, please darling come back to me

On our parting night, I thanked you dear to write, I held the letter now you sent to me
E                                                    B                                E
Your address unknown and I have no telephone, you've done it all, our hopes, my happy home


[Chorus]
A                        E                         B7                         E
oh I'm alone tonight and how I'd like to write, to answer your letter sent to me
