(capo 3rd fret)

F#m = 244222

INtro - A

(verse 1)

A

My dearest son it's almost June,

I hope this letter catches up with you,

D

And finds you well,

A

It's been dry but they're callin for rain,

Everything's the same ol' same,

D

In Johnsonville,

(bridge)

F#m E D

Your stuborn old daddy ain't said too much,

Bm

But I'm sure you know he sends his love,

Esus-E A

And she goes on, in a letter from home,

(chorus)

D

I hold it up and show my buddy's like we ain't scared

A

and our boots ain't muddy, And they all laugh,

E F#m

Like there's somethin funny bout the way I talk,

D

When I say mama sends her best ya'll,

D

I fold it up and put it in my shirt,

Pick up my gun and get back to work,

A E F#m

And it keeps me drivin on,

D - E A

Waitin on, Letters from home,

(verse 2)

A

My dearest love it's almost dawn,

I've been lyin here all night long,

D

Wonderin where you might be,

A

I saw your mama and I showed her the ring,

Man on the television said something,

D

So I couldn't sleep,

(bridge)

F#m E D

But I'll be alright I'm just missin you,

Bm Esus-E

And this is me kissin you, X's and O's,

A

In a letter from home,

(chorus)

D

I hold it up and show my buddy's like we ain't scared

A

and our boots ain't muddy, And they all laugh,

E F#m

Cause she calls me honey but they take it hard,

D

Cause I don't read the good part,

D

I fold it up and put it in my shirt,

Pick up my gun and get back to work,

A E F#m

And it keeps me drivin on,

D - E A

Waitin on, Letters from home,

(bridge)

D

Dear son I know I ain't written,

D A

But sittin here tonight alone in the kitchen it occurs to me,

E F#m

I might not have said it so I'll say it now,

D - E - D

Son you make me proud,

(chorus)

D

I hold it up and show my buddy's like we ain't scared

A

and our boots ain't muddy, but no one laughs,

E F#m

Cause there ain't nothin funny when a soldier cries,

D

And I just wipe my eyes,

D

I fold it up and put it in my shirt,

Pick up my gun and get back to work,

A E F#m

And it keeps me drivin on,

D - Esus - E A

Waitin on, Letters from home,
