Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
G         G       C     D
I took time to write to my old friend
G             G        C       D
I walked across that burning bridge
G             G        C       D
I mailed my letter off to Dallas
G             G        C       D
but her reply came from Anchorage, Alaska

Verse 2:
G             G        C       D
She said hey girl, it's about time you wrote
G             G        C       D
It's been over two years my old friend
G             G        C       D
Take me back to the days of foreign telegrams
G             G        C       D
And the all night rock and rolling
G             G        C       D
Hey 'Chel we were wild then

Texas always seemed so big

When you're anchored down in Anchorage

Hey girl, I think the last time I saw you

Was on me and Leroy's wedding day
G             G        C       D
What was the name of that love song you played
G             G        C       D
I forgot how it goes, I don't recall how it goes

Leroy got a better job so we moved

Kevin lost as tooth, he's started school
G             G        C       D
I've got a brand new eight month baby girl
G             G        C       D
I sound like a housewife
G             G        C       D
Hey 'Chel, I think I'm a housewife

G             G        C       D
Hey girl, what's it like to be in New York City
G             G        C       D
New York city, Imagine that
G             G        C       D
What's it like to be a skateboard punk rocker?
G             G        C       D
Leroy says send a picture
G             G        C       D
Leroy says hello

Texas always seemed so big
G             G        C       D
But you know you're in the largest state in the union
G             G        C       D
When you're anchored down in Anchorage
G             G        C       D
