Airmail To Heaven: Carl Smith
Capo 3rd fret
[A7]/// /// [D]/// ///
[D] A letter was written by a little girl's hand
It was [G] sealed with her little heart's [D] love
Said [A7] “Airmail to Heaven to [D] Daddy
To your [E7] new home somewhere up [A7] above”
As a [D] postman I knew that it couldn't be mailed
So I [G] opened the letter and I [D] read
And [G] to my surprise [D] tears filled my eyes
Here's [A7] what the little girl [D] said
“Dear Daddy Mommy now loves someone new
She [G] says that you're not coming [D] home
She [A7] told me to try to [D] understand
She [E7] can't go on living a-[A7]-lone.
Please [D] Daddy "don’t be mad at Mommy
She needs [G] someone for all she's been [D] through
Cause [G] he will never [D] take your place
*He'll be [A7] just filling in for [D] you.”
Break: Follow pattern of line just finished*
[D] I hope Daddy that you can forgive her
So I’m [G] sealing this letter with [D] love
And I’m [A7] sending it Airmail to [D] Heaven
To your [E7] new home somewhere up a-[A7]-bove
Well I [D] finished and I folded the letter
The [G] tears rolling down my [D] face
For [G] I was the new man she [D] mentioned
Who was [A7] taking her Daddy's [D] place
(For [G] I was the new man she [D] mentioned)
Who was [A7] taking her Daddy's [D] place
