Written by Del McCoury

Key of G · Chords: I IV V

Verse 1

           G                     G
Though the miles are between us, I thought our love would strengthen
   G  D       G
As it had, so many times before
    G                         G
But something has happened, I can see it in your writing
  G                    D                 G
I can tell my world is crumbling and the blues are at my door

Chorus

    G                                 G
The last letter that you wrote was on a blue piece of paper
     G   D        G     G
That old feelings back, the clouds are moving in
    G                            G
The beginning of the end is near I feel your love is fading
   C                             C
In the darkness, it seems I have no friend
  C    D   G     G
I feel the blues moving in

Verse 2

        G                                 G
Oh it’s not the words you wrote that left me sad and broken hearted
   G      D  G
Or put me in this sad shape I’m in
        G                                    G
Between the lines and mixed emotions are the teardrops on the paper
    G                       D            G
You said that’s all I write you now I’ll close for now old friend

Verse 3

   G                             G
My state of mind is desperate as the hole that I’m sinking in
     G      D     G
Gets deeper while I’m digging to get out
   G                                  G
Oh please give me the right answer to the question I’m asking
Tell me you still love me it would turn my world around
