[Intro]
You should know my little darling,
G D G
You left my poor heart in distress.
[Chorus]
G
I got a letter from my darling,
G D
She said she hated to go.
G
It broke my heart the words she wrote me,
G D G
She closed by saying I love you so.
[Verse]
G
This letter meant goodbye forever,
G D
Though we'll have each other's hearts.
G
Our love will fade away in sadness,
G D G
Precious one why do we have to part?
[Chorus]
G
She wrote the words she knew would hurt me,
G D
She said I never could be true.
G
I've tried, I'ved tried my little darling,
G D G
To prove my love was just for you.
