Junior Brown - Read Em And Weep


Capo 2
           D         Em           C             G
I'd always bet your heart which I won fair and square
    C            G           C         D
Was true as our letters from our love affair
    Bm                 Em      C            G
But your love or your promises you couldn't keep
   C           D           G
So now I just read em and weep


Your handwritten gets blurry as I read the lines

My hands start to tremble time after time

I keep soaking the pages because I'm in too deep

And all I do is read em and weep

Chorus
              Em           D        C           G
You put your cards on the table and told me goodbye
    Em        Am             C         D
Now my losing hand holds the reasons I cry
     C           G             Bm          C
The letters you wrote me they won't let me sleep 
      Am           D           G
Cause all I do is read em and weep


And now the games over I know that I failed

I folded and I followed this old paper trail

These water stained memory's were all I could keep

So now I just read em and weep 


Chorus
