verse 1
BbmBbm
Dear Me ...
          GbGb              DbDb            AbAb
This is a letter to the girl I used to be
BbmBbm
Dear Me ...
           GbGb                          DbDb  AbAb
There are some things that you should know
BbmBbm                      GbGb    DbDb         AbAb
It's not my intention to embarrass or to shame you
       BbmBbm                      GbGb           DbDb      AbAb
What's inside the rear-view mirror is closer than it appears
BbmBbm                 GbGb              DbDb                     AbAb
We do the best that we know how, with what we have been given
 BbmBbm                       GbGb                DbDb           AbAb
And the difference between you and I is, I've been given time
BbmBbm   GbGb         DbDb
In time, you'll see

BbmBbm GbGb DbDb AbAb BbmBbm GbGb DbDb


verse 2
BbmBbm
Dear Me ?
              GbGb          DbDb          AbAb
This is a letter to the girl I used to be
BbmBbm                       GbGb           DbDb AbAb
Some things are not as simple as we said
BbmBbm               GbGb                    DbDb               AbAb         BbmBbm
Remember when we thought there were a handful of some magic words to pray
GbGb                       DbDb            AbAb
A augmentedA guarantee and a down payment on a mansion
BbmBbm                            DbDb                 AbAb
Remember all the rules we made about the Body and the Blood
BbmBbm                    GbGb
The hoops we made them jump through.
DbDb             AbAb       BbmBbm
Though He offers it to everyone
GbGb       DbDb
I'm so sorry

BbmBbm                      GbGb        DbDb                    AbAb
Do you remember now the things I said I thought that I deserved
BbmBbm            GbGb
My flag, and safety, a place to learn
DbDb
The things I know I didn't earn
BbmBbm                       GbGb
And bless their hearts, I'm sure it's hard
DbDb
But handouts don't help anyone
AbAb              BbmBbm         GbGb
And all the talk about the system
DbDb          AbAb                 BbmBbm
I sure hope someone can fix them
GbGb        DbDb
I said those things

verse 3
C minorCm
Dear Me ?
              AbAb        Eb MajorEb             Bb majorBb
This is a letter to the girl I used to be
Cn                        AbAb            Eb MajorEb
You'll see, you're gonna take the long way
Bb majorBb    C minorCm               AbAb              Eb MajorEb     Bb majorBb
And there is nothing you could do or say to separate you
Bb majorBb       C minorCm            AbAb                            Bb majorBb
From the love of God who made you just exactly as He meant to
    C minorCm           AbAb                Eb MajorEb                  Bb majorBb
And you cannot imagine all the places you'll see Jesus
          C minorCm             AbAb                      Eb MajorEb
But you'll find Him everywhere you thought He wasn't supposed to go
So, go!.. Go!..

     Eb MajorEb
And hold all the mothers, whose babies bleed from bullet holes
     AbAb
And feel all the hunger, the bellies and the bones
C minorCm
Shout for the prisoner, cry for justice, loud and long
AbAb
And march with the victims, as Jesus marches on
Eb MajorEb                                F minorFm
And sit at all the tables, 'cause Jesus eats with everyone
G minorGm                         AbAb
And dance to the music, if you can't sing its native tongue
C minorCm                      G minorGm
And cry for the wombs, the mothers and the empty arms
AbAb
And hold high the warriors, fighting now for freedoms' song


Bridge
Eb MajorEb
And love, love, love, love
Like it's your own blood
AbAb
And love, love, love, love
As you have been loved
Bb majorBb    C minorCm
Love, love, love, love
Like it's your own blood
G minorGm
Love, love, love, love
As you have been loved
Eb MajorEb
Love, love, love, love, love
G minorGm
Like you have been?
AbAb
Love, love, love, love, love
It's all about love!
C minorCm
Love, love, love, love, love
G minorGm          AbAb
His name is love
Love, love, love, love, love


verse 4
C minorCm
Dear Me ?
             AbAb             Eb MajorEb                Bb majorBb
You did not learn this in a day or two or three
C minorCm             AbAb  Eb MajorEb    Bb majorBb
So ask a lot of questions
C minorCm         AbAb        Eb MajorEb      Bb majorBb
But Jesus loves us, this I know
C minorCm                  AbAb
And there are no exceptions
