| I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter |
| A | F#m | |
| To all the | good friends |
| D | |
| I've | known |
| A | F#m | |
| And I'm gonna | try |
| D | |
| To thank them all for the good times together |
| A | F#m | |
| Though so | apart |
| D | |
| We've | grown |
| (Chorus) |
| A | |
| One of these days |
| Em | |
| I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter |
| D | B7 | |
| To all the good friends I've | known |
| A F#m (Fill II) |
| One of these days |
| A F#m (Fill II) |
| One of these days |
| A | F#m | |
| One of these | days |
| D | |
| And it | won't be long |
| E | |
| It | won't be long |
| Fill (I) + (II if you want) |
| And I'm gonna thank |
| That old country fiddler |
| And all of those rough boys |
| Who play that rock'n'roll |
| I never tried |
| To burn any bridges |
| Though I know I let some |
| Good things go |
| (Chorus) |
| One of these days |
| I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter |
| To all the good friends I've known |
| One of these days |
| One of these days |
| One of these days |
| And it won't be long |
| It won't be long |
| >From down in LA |
| All the way to Nashville |
| New York City |
| To my Canadian prairie home |
| My friends are all scattered |
| Like leaves from an old maple |
| Some are weak |
| Some are strong |
| One of these days |
| I'm gonna sit down and write a long letter |
| To all the good friends I've known |
| One of these days |
| One of these days |
| One of these days |
| And it won't be long |
| It won't be long |
| (Repeat 3x) |
| A | F#m | |
| One of these | days |
| A | F#m | |
| One of these | days |
| A | F#m | |
| One of these | days |
| D | |
| And it | won't be long |
| E | |
| It | won't be long |
| (End on A 3rd time) |
