NO CAPO
G+G
They married in June one afternoon in a church down by their home
C majorC
She wore the ring his mother gave him the day that he left home
G+G
They danced before their families and they held each other close
G+G D MajorD G+G
And on that lovely night in June, oh he loved her so
G+G
The war took him to Paris one year since they had wed
C majorC
He packed envelopes and cigarettes ink and his fountain pen
G+G
He said I will send you letters each week that I am gone
C majorC D MajorD G+G
And I promise you'll feel better, when the postman comes
G+G
The months had past on slowly and his boots had lost their tread
C majorC
But still he wrote his letters this week this one had said
G+G
You are always with me even when I feel alone
C majorC
And this rifle bears a burden and its heavy on my soul
G+G
But you wont have to miss me as once this war is won
C majorC D MajorD G+G
We will be together, when the postman comes
G+G C majorC G+G
G+G
She opens the door to a man with a telegram
G+G
A augmentedA sad look on his face
G+G
She wipes away a single tear and she hears him say
G+G
Something about the military apologies in the ministry
C majorC G+G
And she fell, to the floor
G+G
She questioned him said you've got this wrong
G+G
My husbands fast my husbands strong
G+G D MajorD G+G
And I promise you'll know better, when the postman comes
G+G
If you've received this letter it means the worst has done
C majorC
And I'm sorry and I love you and this isn't what I want
G+G
But you will find another and I will understand
C majorC
I just hope he loves you more than any other can
G+G
I sent you all these letters and for reasons there's just one
C majorC D MajorD G+G
It is me you will remember.. when the postman comes
