Letter to Me         (capo 2nd fret)
Brad Paisley


(intro) G, Bm, G, Bm, G, B minorBm


G+G              B minorBm     G+G          B minorBm
If I could write a letter to me and send it back in time to myself at 17

      C majorC           B minorBm
First I'd prove it's me by saying look under your bed

      A minorAm               D MajorD
There's a Skoal can and a Playboy no one else would know you hid

  G+G             B minorBm       G+G          B minorBm
And then I'd say I know it's tough when you break up after seven months

       C majorC                 B minorBm
And yeah, I know you really liked her, and it just don't seem fair

  A minorAm               D MajorD
All I can say is pain like that is fast, and it's rare.

Chorus:

    G+G  B minorBm     E minorEm       E minor 7Em7
And oh, you got so much going for you, going right

   C majorC    E minorEm        A minorAm       D MajorD
But I know at 17, it's hard to see past Friday night

G+G      B minorBm
She wasn't right for you

   E minorEm         E minor 7Em7       C majorC          E minorEm
And still you feel like there's a knife sticking out of your back

       A minorAm         D MajorD
And you're wondering if you'll survive

       C majorC     E minorEm       A minorAm
You'll make it through this and you'll see

        C majorC          D MajorD    G+G     B minorBm
You're still around to write this letter to me.


G+G                  B minorBm
At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth

G+G
Always stop completely

B minorBm
Don't just tap your brakes

       C majorC
And when you get a date with Bridgett

    B minorBm
Make sure the tank is full

  A minorAm
On second thought forget it

      D MajorD
That one turns out kinda cool

G+G                B minorBm
Each and every time you have a fight

    G+G              B minorBm
Just assume you're wrong and dad is right

         C majorC
And you should really thank Mrs. Brinkman

      B minorBm
She spent so much extra time

   A minorAm
It's like she's the diamond underneath

       D MajorD
And she's polishing you 'til you shine.

Chorus:

    G+G  B minorBm      E minorEm       E minor 7Em7
And oh, you got so much going for you, going right


    C majorC   E minorEm         A minorAm      D MajorD
But I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday night


  G+G         B minorBm         E minorEm      E minor 7Em7
Tonight's the bonfire rally but you're staying home instead

    C majorC       E minorEm       A minorAm         D MajorD
Because if you fail algebra, mom and dad will kill you dead

   C majorC         E minorEm     A minorAm
Trust me you'll squeak by and get a C majorC


          C majorC          D MajorD   G+G
And you're still around to write this letter to me.


G+G       D MajorD   G+G
You've got so much ahead

     C majorC     G+G     C majorC       A minorAm    G+G
You'll make new friends, you should see your kids and wife


G+G           D MajorD   E minorEm
And I'd end by saying have no fear

     C majorC  E minorEm  A minorAm   FF          D MajorD
These are nowhere near the best years of your life.

G+G
I guess I'll see you in the mirror

B minorBm
When you're a grown man

     G+G           D MajorD
P.S. go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can.

Chorus:
    G+G  B minorBm      E minorEm       E minor 7Em7
And oh, you got so much going for you, going right

  C majorC     E minorEm    A minorAm          D MajorD
But I know at 17, it's hard to see past Friday night

G+G          B minorBm
I wish you'd study Spanish

E minorEm           E minor 7Em7
I wish you'd take a typing class

C majorC        E minorEm       A minorAm
I wish you wouldn't worry, let it be

   C majorC         E minorEm        A minorAm    D MajorD
I'd say have a little faith, and you'll see.


  G+G           B minorBm    G+G     B minorBm    G+G
If I could write a letter to me, to me...
