Intro:  C Gsus2 Am F G C F C

[C]I read a [C\B]note my [Am]Grandma wrote back in [F]nineteen [G]twenty[C]three
Grandpa [C\B]kept it [Am]in his coat and he [Dm]showed it once to [G]me
He said [C]boy you [C\B]might not [Am]understand but a 
[F]long, long [G]time [C]ago
Grandma's [C\B]daddy didn't [Am]like me [F]none, but I 
[G]loved your [G7]Grandma [C]so

We had this [C\B]crazy [Am]plan to meet [F]and run a[G]way tog[C]ether
Get married [C\B]in the [Am]first town we came [Dm]to and live fore[G]ver
[C]But nailed [C\B]to the [Am]tree where we were 
sup[F]posed to [G]meet in[C]stead
I [C\B]found this [Am]letter, [F]and [G]this is [G7]what it [C]said  F C

Chorus:
If you [F]get there be[G]fore I [C]do, [F]don't give [G]up on [C]me
I'll meet you when my [C\B]chores are [Am]through
[Dm]I don't know how long I'll [G]be
But I'm [F]not gonna [G]let you [C]down
[F]Darling [G]wait and [Am]see
And [F]between now and [G]then until I [Em]see you a[Am]gain
I'll be [F]loving you[G]    Love,  Me  [C Gsus2 Am F G C F C]

I read those words just hours before my Grandma passed away
In the doorway of a church where me and Grandpa stopped to pray
I know I'd never seen him cry in all my fifteen years
But as he said these words to her, his eyes filled up with tears

Repeat Chorus

And [F]between now and [G]then until I [Em]see you a[Am]gain
I'll be [F]loving you[G]    Love,  Me  [C Gsus2 Am F G C F C]
