Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you
G Am Em
Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
Am Em
And I don't want to bother you anymore
G D
I used to hope you'd come back, but not anymore Dana
Em D Em
My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
G Am Em
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
Am Em
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
G D
Dana, my darling, would be so bad

Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you
G Am Em
'Cause Your mother passed away it was a rainy day
Am Em
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore
G D
Your mother wished: Come visit your fathers grave, Dana
Em D Em
Your father disowned you because you have sinned
G Am Em
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
Am Em
And I - you won't do those things anymore
G D
Dana My darling I'm waiting for
Em G C D Em G C
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, how I wish that Dana was here
Em G C D Em G C C G/B Am
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day, to travel away, far away
Am Em D C G Am G/B
No, you cannot surprise me anymore, I have seen it all before
Am Em D
But it seems I cannot let you go, Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana

And I think that I told you, I'd wait for you forever
Em D
Now I know someone else's holding you
C B Am
So, for the first time in my life - I must lie
Am G C D Em
Lie's a sin, mess that I aim in, love is not the thing I feel now
Am G C Em
I promise you: I won't write again, 'til the sun sets behind your grave
