Tear Stained Letter  Richard Thompson

[Intro] 
[E] [A] [E] [A] [D] [G]  
[Verse 1] 
It was [E]three in the morning when she took me apart
She w[A]recked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
She d[E]anced on my head like Arthur Murray
The [A]scars ain't never going to mend in a hurry
[D]Just when I thought I could learn to forget her
[G]Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
[Cborus] 
[B]Oh, oh, [C]oh love love
[D]Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
[G]Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
[B]Oh, oh, [C]oh love love love
[D]Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
[G]Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

[E] [A] [E] [A]  
[Verse 2] 
Well my h[E]ead was beating like a song by the Clash
It was w[A]riting cheques that my body couldn't cash
[E]Got to my feet, I was reeling and dizzy
[A]I went for the 'phone but the line was busy
[D]Just when I thought that things would get better
[G]Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
[Cborus] 
[B]Oh, oh, [C]oh love love
[D]Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
[G]Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
[B]Oh, oh, [C]oh love love love
[D]Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
[G]Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

[Verse 3] 
[E]Well I like coffee and I like tea
[A]But I just don't like this fiddle-di-dee
[E]It makes me nervous, it gives me the hives
[A]Waiting for a kiss from a bunch of fives
[D]Just when I think I could learn to forget her
[G]Right through the door come a tear-stained letter
[Cborus] 
[B]Oh, oh, [C]oh love love
[D]Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
