D     D7           A
I recall the moment,
         F#m     A       E      E7
though I can't recall the day.
    F#m    F#m9/E#    D7
Every other song was there
   A
on parade

[Verse]
A
Words become,
      C#m         C#m7             F#7
But a lifetime of words will be forgotten and burned
        D7                       (main riff)
by the time you read this letter.

A
Sins become
            C#m          C#m7         F#7
Oh, but the sins of your past will be forgotten and gone
       D7                          (main riff)
By the time you reach the pretender

    C#m          C#7           F#7
Oh, libraries of guilt will be razed and  burned
       D7                          (main riff)
By the time you reach the pretender

[Chorus]
E                       A
If I'm not there to remind ourselves,
F#7                        Bm     Bm7/A
I'll send a friend with a plan.
D                           A
I only want you to be happier,
D                     C#m    E       Asus2
I only need you to let go,  oh oh, ah ahh...

A
Words become
       C#m         C#m7          F#7
ah but lifetime of words will be forgotten and burned
       D7                        (main riff)
By the time you read this letter

        C#m          C#m7         F#7
All the sins of your past will be forgotten and gone
       D7                          (main riff)
By the time you reach the pretender

[Chorus]
E                         A
The coffee's gone and the rooster's lunch
F#7                  Bm      Bm7/A
I only call if I get worried
D                           A
I only want you to be happier,
D                     C#m    E       Asus
I only need you to let go,  oh oh, ah ahh...

Main riff
A Dm

[Outro]
D        D7       A
We don't need the shelter
       F#m    A        E   E7
And we barely fear the rain
             F#m    F#m9/E#    D7
We've been soaked too long to care
   A
Or complain

D        D7       A
We don't need the money
       F#m    A        E    E7
And we barely need our names
        F#m      F#m9/E#  D7
I won't call the cops for comfort
                   A
right now I call a friend
