Nothing to Write Home About Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Dear mother, what can [F]I say
It's [Eb]been so long [F]since I went [G]away
And yes, I miss the comforts [F]of home
But I [Eb]guess I'm better [F]off on my [G]own

[Verse 2]
[F]No one told me people
could be [G]so cruel
Nobody [F]told me about any of this in [G]school
[Cm]Stil[F]l nobody understands the thing[Eb]s
that I don't understand

[Verse 3]
I've [Bb]nothing to write home about
[Ab]Nothing I have figured out
[Bb]Still I have the same old doubts
[Cm]Nothing to write home about

[Verse 4]
Dear [Gm]John, that [G]ain't my [F]name
[Eb]I'm just hangin' '[F]round
to take [G]the blame
I'm filled with guilt, I'm filled [F]with shame
Too [Eb]much or not [F]enough it's all [G]the same

[Verse 5]
And [F]no one wants to talk about [G]the loss
[F]No one wants to talk about [G]the cost[Cm]
[F]Every one just looks away,
[Eb]just like any other day

[Verse 6]
I've [Bb]nothing to write home about
[Ab]Nothing I have figured out
[Bb]Still I have the same old doubts
[G]Nothing to write home about

[Verse 7]
[Cm]Who can teac[Ab]h me how to[Eb]
change my [Cm]ways
Who will [Ab]come [Bb]and save t[Cm]he day
Who will [Ab]tell me what [Eb]to say
[Fm]When there's noth[F]ing left [Ab]to say
[G]

[G][F][Eb][F][G]

[Verse 8]
Nobody [F]told me about any
of this in [G]school
No one [F]told me I'd be taken for [G]a fool
And [F]everyone just looks away,
and [Eb]tries to make it through the day

[Verse 9]
I've [Bb]nothing to write home about
[Ab]Nothing I have figured out
[Bb]Still I have the same old doubts
[Cm]Nothing to write home about
