The Civil Wars - 20 years

There's a ^Emnote underneath the ^Gfront door that I ^Emwrote twenty years^G ago ^D/F# Yellow p^Emaper and a faded ^Gpicture And a ^Amsecret in an envelope

There's no ^Emreasons No e^Gxcuses There's no ^Emsecondhand a^Glibis^D/F# Just some ^Emblack ink on some ^Gblue lines and a s^Amhadow you won't recognize

In the ^Emmean time I'll be ^Gwaiting for twenty y^Emears and twenty ^Gmore ^D/F# I'll be ^Empraying for ^Gredemption and your ^Amnote underneath my ^Emdoor ^D/F# And your ^Amnote underneath my door
