Let You Down



Intro:

G     D     C    (X2)


Verse:

Am               C
She turned 21 in April

Am                                  G
You know her birthday's the same as mine

Am                                 C
When we first met she'd never left Texas

Am                   G
She was young and so confused

Am                       C
She got caught up in the bright lights

Am                                G            
The whiskey, pills, and all those late nights

Am                                  C
And from the mountain where we were standing

Am                            D
She fell so far she could not see



Chorus:

           G            D
That I was angry when I woke up

       C                  
When I found out that we broke up

    G                        D               C
She packed her bags, she was gone before the sun

           G             D
She left a letter on the table

     C                   
Said catch me if you're able

            G               D                 C
But I'll be moving fast and I'm still hard to find

          Am                  
So I wont call you and I wont follow

          C/B                              
Cause the truth is hard to swallow

         C                    D             G
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down




Heard from a friend you went back to Corpus
You always loved that ocean air
I know that you know that I'm headed down that way
Dont worry cause I wont call
And it'd be strange for me to see you
You know there's so much left unsaid


Chorus


         C                    D            Em
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down


Solo (Chorus Chords)


I wrote you a letter while in Corpus
And it took everything I had
Went down to the pier 
And looked out across that bay
I took that letter, then I watched it burn away


Chorus

         C                    D            Em
Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down
