Dear Miss Loretta, [A] I ain't ever met you, [B] but I'm lonely tonight.
And I [E] just bet you might have some wisdom [A] to pull off that shelf.
[B] Your songs were all fun, till I lived them [E] myself.
I ain't a coal miner's daughter, [A] but my grandmother was.
[B] Must be whiskey in the water, [E] must be bourbon in the blood.
I'm a long way from Kentucky, [A] but the hurtin's the same.
[B] Now I know why you sang [E] that [Em] way.
[E] [B]
Oh, [E] what ended up tough, [A] started out broken.
[B] What ended up lost, I started [E] out hoping.
A lifetime of pain [A] was three minutes long.
[B] And you weren't ashamed when the world [E] sang along.
I ain't a coal miner's daughter, [A] but my grandmother was.
[B] Must be whiskey in the water, [E] must be bourbon in the blood.
I'm a long way from Kentucky, [A] but the hurtin's the same.
[B] Now I know why you sang [E] that way.

[F#m] Dear Miss Loretta, [B] we both grew up too fast.
[F#m] And I wish you could tell me [B] how you made it last.
I [E] ain't a coal miner's daughter, [A] but I've sung it all my life.
[B] I ain't been a widow, [A] but I've [E] been an ex-wife.
And I hear your truth, [A] and I feel [F#] your pain.
[B] Now I know why you sang [E] that way.
[B] Yeah, I know why you sang that [E] way.
