Letter to Me (capo 2nd fret)
Brad Paisley
(intro) G, Bm, G, Bm, G, Bm
GIf I could write a letter to Bmme and send Git back in time to mBmyself at 17
First I'd pCrove it's me by saying Bmlook under your bed
There's a SAmkoal can and a Playboy no one eDlse would know you hid
And Gthen I'd say I know it's tBmough when you brGeak up after seven mBmonths
And yeah, I kCnow you really liked her, and it jBmust don't seem fair
All AmI can say is pain like that is fDast, and it's rare.
Chorus:
And oh,G you Bmgot so much Emgoing for you, gEm7oing right
But I Cknow at Em17, it's hard to sAmee past Friday nDight
GShe wasn't rBmight for you
And sEmtill you feel like tEm7here's a knife sCticking out of your Emback
And you're wonAmdering if you'll surDvive
You'll make iCt through Emthis and you'llAm see
You're still arCound to write this lDetter to Gme. Bm
GAt the stop sign at Tomlinson and EiBmghth
GAlways stop completely
BmDon't just tap your brakes
And when you gCet a date with Bridgett
Make suBmre the tank is full
On sAmecond thought forget it
That one tuDrns out kinda cool
GEach and every time you have a fBmight
Just asGsume you're wrong and dad is Bmright
And you should reaClly thank Mrs. Brinkman
She spent sBmo much extra time
It's lAmike she's the diamond underneath
And she's poliDshing you 'til you shine.
Chorus:
And oh, Gyou Bmgot so much gEmoing for you, gEm7oing right
But I kCnow at Em17 it's hard to see Ampast Friday nDight
TonGight's the bonfire Bmrally but you're staEmying home insEm7tead
BecauseC if you fail aEmlgebra, mom and Amdad will kill you deDad
Trust Cme you'll squeak byEm and get a AmC
And you're still aroCund to write this letDter to Gme.
GYou've got so mDuch ahGead
You'll maCke new friGends, you sChould see your Amkids and wGife
GAnd I'd end by saying hDave no Emfear
These are CnowheEmre neaAmr the bFest years of your liDfe.
GI guess I'll see you in the mirror
BmWhen you're a grown man
P.S. go hGug Aunt Rita every chaDnce you can.
Chorus:
And oh,G you Bmgot so much gEmoing for you, gEm7oing right
But CI know at Em17, it's Amhard to see past FridDay night
GI wish you'd study SpBmanish
EmI wish you'd take a typEm7ing class
CI wish you wouldnEm't worry, let itAm be
I'd sCay have a little fEmaith, and you'll Amsee. D
If GI could write a letter Bmto me, to Gme... Bm G
