Paper And Pen

G D G C
There's a letter in a shoe box in a dresser she keeps locked
G D
But she's never read it all the way through
G D G C
It was the last one he wrote her, she was sure it was over
G D G
From all that he told her in the first line or two

G D G C
He said times are hard now, got some things left to sort out
G D
And a man and his freedom don't easily part
G D G C
That's were she stopped reading, her soul was bleeding
G D G
So she chose her weapon and went for his heart


G D G
With paper and pen she got her last word in
G A D
I never loved you was lie she wrote him
C G
He couldn't believe the reply he'd received
G C
What sad tragedy for good love to end
G
Ah who needs a knife when you can
G D G
Take someone's life with paper and pen


G D G C
Well, they say he went crazy, in just a few days he
G D
Got on the bottle and went out of his mind
G D G C
To this day, she don't know in the letter that he wrote
G D G
He asked for her hand in the very last line


G D G
With paper and pen she got her last word in
G A D
I never loved you was lie she wrote him
C G
He couldn't believe the reply he'd received
G C
What sad tragedy for good love to end
G
Ah who needs a knife when you can
D G
Take someone's life with paper and pen
C G
Ah who needs a knife when you can
D G
Take someone's life with paper and pen
