Xavier Rudd - The Letter

      
 
                 Em  C 
 I I sit by my window
      D               Em  
 With everything I've done
 Em              C     
 Doors that I've opened
     D              Em  
 And webs that I've spun
 
         Em       C      
 And the candle beside me
    D            Em  
 it burns to the left
         Em          C   
 and the rain on the clay
           D              Em  
 sends the lizard to it's nest
 
      Em         C   
 will there be a time
             D        Em    
 when I will hold you again?
         Em          C  
 With my arms spread out
    D            Em  
 My chest you'll rest
 
          Em          C     
 And I'll write you a letter
      D            Em  
 With everything I know
           Em           C     
 'bout the weight of the world
         D                Em 
 And the way things could go
 
 (CHORUS)
         Em    C     
 So live up my friend
      D       Em 
 Step back again
     Em                  C    
 For some things will be given
     D                   Em  
 For some you'll have to bend
                 Em      C     
 You' ll have to bend my friend
         D      Em 
 To hold on to this
     Em                    C   
 For some things will come easy
     D              Em  
 And some will be a test
                Em  C D Em 
 You'll have to bend
 
         Em             C 
 Now the ocean connects me
    D            Em  
 To everything I know
     Em           C   
 I'm mellowing my mind
       D             Em  
 So my heart, it can call
 
            Em          C      
 With these trees as my witness
      D             Em   
 I'll slice up some fruit
     Em           C        
 And each to their peaceful
        D            Em   
 good intentions and truth
 
            Em       C 
 There will be a time
           D          Em 
 when I'll hold you again
         Em          C  
 With my arms spread out
        D          Em                  
 I will dive right in (END OF CHORUS)))
 
        Em           C     
 So now here is your letter
      D            Em  
 With everything I know
          Em             C    
 'Bout the weight of the world
         D                Em 
 And the way things could go
 
 CHORUS
