I figured this out a few min's ago and just had to post it, as it is a

brillant song, one of my favorites.

The whole song has only two chords, but I don't know their names. These

chords are: 007760 (I'll call it a "Am") and 007780 (I'll call it "Asus4").

Artist: Kristin Hersh

Song: The Letter

Album: Hips And Makers

Intro:Am, Asus4 x 2

             Am   Asus4

September 29, 1984. Dear so and so

Am                        Asus4

  Gather me up because I'm lost

        Am

Or am I back where I started from

     Asus4                            Am

I'm crawling on the floor rolling on the ground

        Asus4            Am       Asus4

I might cry,  I won't go home

      Am          

I am turning up in circles

          Asus4                

And I'm spinning on my knuckles

       Am                           Asus4

Don't forget there are circles left undone

          Am

And very close to me

       Asus4      Am

Forgive me, comfort me  

     Asus4                            Am             Asus4

I'm crawling on the floor, rolling on the ground

There's a blanket wrapped around my head

I'm moving in a line that's shaped like this

I'm...I'm holding in my breath

I have a room

Can you tell if I am lying

Don't forget I'm living inside the space where walls and floor meet

There's a box inside my chest

An animal stuffed with my frustrations

Can you hear me?

Don;t forget that I'm alone when you're away

You make me act like another people, do forgive me

Comfort me, you comfort me, you make me cry

I'm gonna cry, I won't go home

Doooooooooonnnnnnn't kill the god of sadness

Just don't let her get you down

See the man inside a book I read can't handle his own head

So what the hell am I supposed to do?

I wonder how he died

My hands are shaking, don't you love me anymore

I only need a person, keep my shoulders

Stand around, lie down, move your hand above the floor

(softer)

Gather me up because I'm lost

Or am I back where I started from

I'm crawling on the floor, rolling on the ground

I'm gonna cry, you look for me

Love Kristin

P.S. Keep them coming

I'm not sure if it's right, but it sounds alot like it.

Mail me at: rose@sprintlink.co.za if you have the proper version or if you

have any other Kristin Hersh songs from her album Hips And Makers (besides

the songs already on the OLGA).
