1st verse
(G) (C) (G)
She pulled the letter from the pages of her Bible
(G) (D) (G)
And a rose pressed inside the Book of Luke
(G) (C) (G)
For fourteen years she'd write each day but keep it hidden
(G) (D) (G)
Refused to even speak his name but still she wrote
Chorus
2nd verse
At a cold grey apartment in Chicago
A cigarette drowns inside a glass of gin
He lies there drunk but it don't matter drunk or sober
He'll never read the words that pride won't let her send
