Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Thi[C]s is my last letter
Dear, to you
[G][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[G]
This is my last letter, [D]baby
I just can't write you anymore
My poor little finger's swollen
[G]I'm tired of pacing the floor,
yes, [C]I am

[Verse 3]
Threw away our favorite [C]record[G]
It was tearing me [D]apart
This is my seventh letter, baby
Just to satisfy my heart
[G]

[Verse 4]
(One) Monday, I wrote and told [D]you
I was all alone and blue
(Two) Tuesday, I wrote again, baby
I said I [G]loved no one, no one
No one but you, no,
[C]I don't

[Verse 5]
(Three) Wednesday, I wired you a [C]cable
[G]
Begging you [D]to call
(Four) Thursday, I sent the message
I said I was wrong and, darling
Please come back home
[G]

[Verse 6]
[C]
(Five) Friday, I woke [G]up crying
With the sniff of a [D]tear
(Six) come along long lonesome Saturday
I did the same thing all over again
[G]Yes, I did[C]

[Verse 7]
(Seven) this is my seventh [C]letter,
[G]baby
On this bright Sunday [D]morning
Just got off my knees from praying
I said, Oh, Lord, oh, Lord
Please send her [G]back home

[Verse 8]
Can't she hear me talking to her
[C](This is my last letter
[G]Dear, to you)
Seven letters, seven days
Seven long, lonely days
There, I said [C]it

[Verse 9]
(This is my last [C]letter
Dear, to you) yes, [G]it is
Yes, it is, yes, [C]it is
[G]Oh, yes, it is
