Capo 8th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro
Verse
You write letters to yourself cause you know there is no one else
Who can feel how you feel or offer any help
Cause youre down and youre out but that light is left on in your house
Cause youre just too scared too damn scared to turn it out
And that clatter on your finger will you turn it back around?
Cause you tell me you love me but do you know you havent found
A reason breathing or standing on your own
And if you cant move yourself you cant drag my broken bones
Chorus
So now our love, love, love is a sad, sad song
A memory this softly sitting home
And our love, love, love is a sad, sad song
And Ill wait for you to come back to me and sing along
Verse
And my friends all say Im crazy for chasing after you
But those assholes dont know nothing, they dont know what we have been through
Like the time we flew down I-80 with stones we spelled the truth.
We gave the world our love and now, now Im giving it back to you
Chorus
As a sad, sad, sad, sad song
A memory this softly sitting home
And our love, love, love is a sad, sad song
And Ill wait for you to come back to me and sing along
Verse
And you write letters to yourself in those journals you keep
Im just hoping those new pages will see passages of me
(Same pattern as the Chorus)
Chorus
And now our love, love, love is a sad, sad song
A memory this softly sitting home
And our love, love, love is a sad, sad song
Sing this tune until my lonesome days are done
