              Last Love Letter 
 
 
    D          G         A 
I'm writing my last love letter. 
        D              G                   A 
And for reasons now, I don't know where to start. 
         D               G               D 
Seems so many times I've written down, I love you, 
        Em                   A                      
Well, I hope this time I can get that through your  
D 
heart. 
 
G G  D             G            D            G 
Only fools will go on, and keep talking to a wall 
                           D 
But I can't fool around forever. 
G   G  D            G                D                 
 
And if stone is the wall that you've built around your 
 
G 
heart, 
                                 D 
Then I guess its goodbye in this letter. 
 
 
And baby I was wrong, to ever think that you could 
love me. 
I was hoping you just couldn't find the time. 
Had my thoughts been in vain with pen and paper. 
Did you ever care that I ever, crossed your mind. 
 
(To Chorus)
