[Intro]
C G Am F

[Verse 1]
        C
Dear Tomorrow,
             C          G
You've been shining so brightly
         G         Am 
I'll be holding on tightly
        Am               F
To the words that you said
             F             C
Because you took that one moment
         C            G
So much more than alone then
         G          Am 
We were out on our own then
       Am            F   F   F   F
Until you took me in

[Chorus 1]
           Am                          G
Then you sat down next to me with your heart on your sleeve
      C                             F
If I never would've met you then I never would believe
  Am                       G                      F
Someone like you would be writing to someone like me
F                C   G   Am    F
 Signed, Yours Truly

[Verse 2]
          C
Dear My Someday,
           C           G
I'll keep writing you nightly
          G          Am 
And keep holding on tightly
        Am              F
To the words that you said
             F         C
So proud of who you became now
             C              G
You're in a world without chains now
              G               Am 
You let your heart lead your brain
                Am        F   F   F   F
How you always wanted to be

[Chorus 2]
               Am                        G
But when I'm sitting here alone I can't help but to think
         C                       F
Looking back on the people that we used to be
           Am               G                F
Why does being so free mean so far away from me?
F                C   C 
 Signed, Yours Truly

[Bridge]
        Am        Am 
I kept waiting around
         F          F
I kept chasing the mail
        C           G
Always lost never found
        Am            Am            F            F
I kept writing and dreaming till my words ran out
        C              C
And I stared at this blank page
       G          G
Until finally I wrote...

[Verse 3]
         C
Dear My Never,
           C              G
This is my half-hearted goodbye
           G             Am 
The other half wants to still try
             Am              F
Remembering words that you said
       F            C
But I guess we let go now
          C          G
We'll be out on our own
                G           Am 
How you always wanted this all out
     Am                    F   F
But now I guess it's too late

[Chorus 3]
        Am                      G
But my one wish for you is that you find yourself
       C                      F
Don't settle for less or for anyone else
   Am                           G                     F
I pray that you dream like the dreamer I know you can be
F                C   C   G   G   Am    Am    F   F
 Signed, Yours Truly

[Verse 4]
      C
Dear Tomorrow,
         C             G
I still know that you might leave
       G           Am 
I keep holding on tightly
       Am             F
To the words that you said
             F             C
Of all the things I've let go of
         C              G
And the way that I've grown up
           G              Am 
You're the one thing I'm sure of
             Am        F   F
That I could never forget

[Chorus 4]
               Am                        G
Because it's impossible to fly without wind on your wings
            C                          F
You're the air that I breathe and the songs that I sing
     Am                     G
Without you I never found much to believe
         C                              F
But you taught me to be the person that I'm meant to be
    Am                     G
So maybe for once we can settle the score
             C                           F
Because the road to my heart leads me straight to your door
         Am                       G                   F   F                       
Through all of these years I've never been anything more
            C   G   Am    F
Than Yours Truly,
            C
Than Yours Truly
