[Verse 1]
[C]I'm[Am] send[F][C][Dm][C]
ing you these [Am]let ters
Across [F]miles and miles of wa[C]ter
Tell [Dm]Stevie that I saw [C]his friend
[F]And the mother that I love [Gsus4]her
Well, I [C]know I haven't [Am]been here long
And I [F]know it seems much [C]longer
But [Dm]every letter [C]you write back
Makes [Bb]me a little st[C]ronger[Bb][C]
Everybody [Am]here has been [F]as
many years as [Gsus4]me[C][Dm]
But only now they [C]realize what
[F]they are here to [G]see
So I'll [C]take my pen and [Am]I write you a note
And [F]send it off [Gsus4]in a letter[C]
And [Dm]we'll hope that writing
my [C]troubles down
Will [Bb]make me feel [C]bet[Bb] ter
One [F]step [Cm]forward and one [Bb]step [C]left
I raise my [Cm]gun and I take [Bb]my ai[F]m
[C]I'm just a paw[Am]n in the gov[Dm]ernmen[F]t's gam[C]e
[Csus4][Cm][F][C][Am][C][Csus4]
[C]The first day I was pos[Am]ted
Was the [F]longest I have [C]known[Dm]
I can't believe the [C]bitterness
The hu[F]man heart can [G]show
[C]The hatred of anoth[Am]er is
[F]a blindness in their [C]eye[Dm]s
All I do is [C]stand between them
[Bb]Wondering [C]why[Bb]
[Ab]One [F]step f[Cm]orward and one step [C]left
I raise my [Cm]gun and I take my a[F]im
[C]I'm just a paw[Am]n in the governmen[F]t's gam[C]e[Csus4]
[Cm][F][Cm][F][Am][C][Csus4][C][Am][F][C][Dm]
[C][F][G]
Little [C]boy stands with [Am]stones in [Dm]hand
[F]And cold eyes of [C]steel
I [Dm]wish I could throw my [C]riffle down
And [F]tell them how I [Gsus4]feel
Well, [C]I know I haven't [Am]been here long
And [F]I know it seems much [C]longer
[Dm]But every letter you post [C]to me
Makes [Bb]me a little st[C]ronger ,[Bb] str[Bb]onge[C]r
