Send me a letter Amanda

Intro: [F][C]-[G][C]

 

1. [C] I still remember we got together

A romance was hot I [G] recall

[G7] I was at grandma’s but when school was starting

I had to come back in the [C] fall

[C] You gave me your address and I started writing

At least every couple of [F] days

And out by the mailbox, I [C] watched for the mailman

With [G] anticipation, I’d [C] say

 

Chorus: I said [C] hey, send me a [C7] letter A-[F] manda

I said [G] hey, send me a letter to-[C] day [G7]

I said [C] hey, send me a [C7] letter A-[F] manda

Tell me you love me or [C] tell me it’s over

[G] I need to know either [C] way

 

2. My [C] friends called me crazy

My family all gave me suggestions and friendly ad-[G] vice

They talked about absence and how hearts go fonder

And fish in the sea they were [C] nice

[C] Pretty girls flirted and I was alerted

Some [C7] thought I was handsome and [F] sweet

But I was determined, to [C] wait for a letter

[G] Out by the box on the [C] street

 

Chorus: I said [C] hey, send me a [C7] letter A-[F] manda

I said [G] hey, send me a letter to-[C] day [G7]

I said [C] hey, send me a [C7] letter A-[F] manda

Tell me you love me or [C] tell me it’s over

[G] I need to know either [C] way [G][C]

[F][C]-[G][C]-[A7]

 

3. [D] Now he’s older, the years have flown by him

So much have changed since back [A]then

He [A7] makes his music rides in a big bus

And flies round the world with his [D] band

The [D] papers and TV says nice things about him

His [D7] songs are a picture of [G] life

And girls so is this one and we [D] are so thankful

That we [A] are singing with him [D] tonight

 

Chorus: I said [D] hey, send me a [D7] letter A-[G] manda

I said [A] hey, send me a letter to-[D] day [A7]

I said [D] hey, send me a [D7] letter A-[G] manda

We’ll send you some flowers, me [D] David and Howard

And a [A] brand new CD right a-[D] way

We’ll send you some flowers, me [D] David and Howard

And a [A] brand new CD right a-[D] way
