YOU GOT MY LETTER
D A
1. You got my letter, but you must not read your mail.
D A
You got my letter, baby, but you must not read your mail.
E D (F#m in other verses)
Well, I?m a happy man if I can get to you,
D A
And I?m a sad man if I fail.
2. ?Should?ve known better, than to leave it to the postal line.
?Should?ve known better, baby, baby.. I?m like a man running out of time.
I laid my heart out in that envelope,
Now I?m layin? it on the line, mm-mm.

D9 A
Chorus: Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo, Yes I?m laying it on the line, mm, mm.
D E7
Ooh-ooh-hoo-hoo. And you could take a big load off my mind..
D7
Hope you?re gonna read it now, and give me some kind of sign.
D7
?Don?t take too much to read it now, ?don?t have to read between them lines,
D7
To shine a little light on me, and to take away this mystery.
E7
I need a reason to be here, I need a reason to be.
E7 A
And you?re the reason so to me.. (don?t fail me now..)
3. SOLO (Ooh-ooh)
I laid my heart out in that envelope,
Now I?m layin? it on the line, mm-mm.
Chorus: ?Know you?re gonna be here, know you?re gonna be here soon.
And make it so much better, by the light of the big old moon.
Send me some good news, to take away these yearnin? blues.
You give me reason to be here, you give me reason to be.
And you?re the reason for me.. (don?t fail me now,baby..)
