[C] When you go
Will [G] you [C] send back [F] a letter [G] from [C] America?
Take a look
Up the real track [F] from [G] Miami to [Em] Canada
[F] broke up from my work
The other [Am] day I spent the evening thinking about all the blood that flowed [F] away
Across the ocean to the second [Dm] chance.
[Am] I wonder how it go on [Em] when it reached [F] the promised [Am] land
[G]
[C] When you go
Will you send back [Dm] a letter [G] from?
[C] America take a look
Up the real track [Dm] from [G] Miami to [C] Canada
[F] I've looked at the ocean
Tried hard to imagine [Am] the way they felt the day they sailed from Westeros to Nova [F] Scotia
We should have held you
We should have told you [Am] but you know since the time and [Em] we always [F] wait [Am] too long
[G] When [C] you go
Will you send back [Dm] a letter [G] [C] from America?

[G]
[F] I wonder my boy
Will you ever return [Am] to help us kick the life back to a dying mutual friend?
[F] Do we not love her?
Do we not say we [Am] love her?
Do we have to roam the [Em] world to prove [F] how much [Am] it hurts?
