Intro
C    G    Am    Em  F     


Verse 1

C                   G
She wrote to me and said in a letter

         Am               F
That she wanted to see if she could do better

    C                         G
She thought that she could if only I’d let her

    Am                         F
And that’s where she stood for worse or for better

    G                      C
And I couldn’t argue cause deep down I knew

   Dm                        G7
As much as it pained me well I felt it too


Chorus

    C     Am
And oh my love

             Em
We’ve got to be more careful 

Bb
In the future

    C      Am
And oh how much

            Em
It helps to talk about it

Bb
Let it out


Verse 2

C                   G
Yesterday I found a picture of me

     Am               F
When I was a baby and I was to be

  C                 G
A man with no home adrift in the sea

   Am                 F
No plan of his own so careless and free

    G                        C
And it makes me sad but then deep down I know

     Dm                          G7
That all is not lost and there’s still room to grow


Chorus

    C     Am
And oh my love

             Em
We’ve got to be more careful 

Bb
In the future

    C      Am
And oh how much

            Em
It helps to talk about it

Bb
Get it out


Solo

C    G    Am    Em  F


Verse 3

C                     G
We could be lovers or we could be friends

Am                     F
Smother each other but that’s how it ends

C                             G
Could be the wrong words that mean everything

     Am                        F
Like two lonely songbirds that don’t wanna sing

    G                        C
And it’s hard to swallow but deep down inside

  Dm                         G7
I know that it’s true and it can’t be denied


Chorus

C     Am
Oh my love

             Em
We’ve got to be more careful

Bb
In the future

    C      Am
And oh how much

            Em
It helps to talk about it

Bb
Let it out

        C        Am
And I’m so proud of

           Em
The way we face the truth

Bb
About our future

    C     Am
And so my love

             Em
What will we do without it?

Bb
Do without it?
