[VERSE 1]
Em                   C
Meet me there at mid - night,
     Am9            B
same place we always go
    Em         C              B7
I'm absolutely sure he doesn't  know
      Em                    C
Those words jump off the letter
       Am9              B
that I found behind our bed
Em               C          D           B
Haunting me they echo in my head, in my head

There's no way to turn this thing around
     Em  C            G                D
It's all there in the letter that I've found
     B7
I've memorized it line for line
 
Too bad that letter isn't mine

When can I next see     you?

I've been counting down the days
  Em              C             B7
I promise you our secret will be  safe
    Em                 C
No, I just can't conti - nue
Am                      B7
reading through my tears
    Em             C            D         B
The beating of the letter is so clear, so clear
