[C] [G]
[F] [Dm] [Eb]
Lately I've [Db] become [Ab] such a postcard lover, [Fm] [Ab]
especially of the [Db] ones [Bbm] [Dm] I get from you.
[C]
And if these days, they don't come quite so often,
[Dm]
[C] They charm [G] me more [C] than ever, when [Fm] they do,
[C] [G]
[Cm] I'll picture you, [Fm]
[Ab] beside a sunny harbor, [Bbm]
[Ab] waiting for a [Fm] boat to come [Dm] to shore.
Your
[Em] finger [A] lingering on [C] a postcard spinner,
[Dm]
In [C] the [G] doorway [C] of a tacky [Bbm] tourist store, [C]
[Ab] or whiling away,
[C] Those warm and [Gb] chatted [C] evenings,
[E] riding in the corner of [Em] some cafe.
[Gbm] Those careless collections [D]
[A] of words [F] and feelings,
[Dm]
[Am] You happen to feel [D] like [Cm] sending [Gm] me [Fm] that day.
[C]
[Ab] I save every [Fm] card, [Cm] although it gets [Fm] hard,
To keep [Cm] some order [Ab] amongst those random
[Bbm] souvenirs.
[Fm] It amazes me some, [Dbm]
[Ab] the [Cm] way we've [B] become,
[Fm] Such postcard lovers, [Db] divided by the oceans [Bb] and [Cm] the years.

[G] [F] [G]
[C] Or are you [F] homesick for [G] that grey and drizzly nation,
[Dm]
As [G] you walk home [C] amidst the evening [D] crowds,
[Fm] The [C] [Dm]
[Ab] postcards I send to [Fm] you, [Ab]
from my own travels,
[Fm]
[Cm] Can hardly match the [Fm] ones you send [F] to me.
[G] But at least [Am] I give [G] you, news of what I am doing,
[C]
And open [G] my heart to [C] you, [Bbm] occasionally,
[C]
[Ab] Looking back on [C]
all the cards you've written,
[Dbm] From every far-flung [Gb] corner [E] beneath the [Em] sun.
[B] [A] [Gbm] They say so little of [D] [Dm] the life you're really leading,
[Am] So little of the [Cm] person [Fm] you've become,
But [C] [Ab] they still bear the [Fm] traces, [Bbm] [Ab] of all the special [C] places,
[Bbm] [Ab] We've kept deep within [Bbm] our hopes, and in our fears.
[Db] [D] It amazes me [Dbm] some, [Ab] the way we've become,
[B] [Bb] Such postcard lovers, divided [Bbm] by the oceans,
and [Ab] the years.
