_ [D] _ And I got a [A] letter [G] on a [D] cold and [Bm] lonesome morning.
_ [G] Says [Em] you ain't half the [D] man you were when I called you my [A] friend.
I swore I'm buying you [Bm] like an oath.
_ _ [A] You burned the sails to your [Bm] own boat [D] and said bon voyage _ [Bm] adios.
And [F#m] _
[Bm] _ _ _ _ [D] we all [A] break [G] a [A] [E] promise or [Bm] two.
_ [G] _ [D] I've only got [G] so [D] many years to live for that excuse.

_ [G] I tend to walk [D] away from things I don't understand.
[A] It's always one step closer [Bm] till the end.
_ [A] I'm always broken and [Bm] never [D] bent and I lament.
[Bm] _ _ _
[A] _ [Bm] _ _ _ [D] _ We'll lose it all [A] [D] at the end [Bm] of the race.
_ [G] And everything you [D] love soon will return to the [A] clay.
I dreamt of your [Bm] hand clasped in mine.
_ [A] _ Walking through the ashes [Bm] of all time.
I said [D] I love you, [Bm] then you died. _
[F#m] _ [Bm] _ _ _ [F#m] _ [F#] _ Sorrows deeper [Bm] than the ocean.

[Bm] _ _ _ [D] _ And I got a letter out of cold and [Bm] lonesome warning.
_ [G] Says you ain't half [D] the man you were.
When I called to you my [A] friend, I swore by you [Bm] like an oath.
_ [A] You burned the seals to [Bm] your own [D] bone and said bon voyage [B] adios. _
