[Verse]
Em G
Way, way down the line

When we're both grey and old
Em D Em
I beg of you, open up my letters
Em G
Tell me stories 'bout drinking wine

How he took you out for dinner
C
How you danced all night
Em D
Tell me that you found someone better
[Chorus]
C Em
As I want you to try
C Em
As I want you to fly
C
I ain't saying you should be

alone for the rest of your life but
D
You rip his heart out
[Verse]

Way, way down the line

When we're both sixty-four

I beg of you, open up my letters

Well, I won't be telling stories 'bout drinking wine

Where I'm born I'm bound to die
Em D Em
Carefully choosing every letter
[Chorus]

As I want you to try

As I want you to fly

You rip his heart out

As I want you to try

As I want you to fly

Until that cold coyote comes

Open up my letters
