Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
[Verse]
G D
I was standing by my window yesterday mornin?
G
Without a thought of worry or of regret
C
When I saw the postman coming down the pathway
D G
He was bringin? me a letter edged in black
G D
Well he rang the bell and whistled while he waited
G
Than he said good morning to you Jack
C
But he never knew the sorrow that he brought me
D G
When he handed me that letter edged in black
G D
With trembling hand I took the letter from him
G
I broke the seal and this is what it said
C
Come home my boy your dear old father wants you
D G
Come home my boy your dear old mother's dead
G D
The last words that your mother ever uttered
G
Was tell my boy I want him to come back
C
My eyes are dim my poor old heart is breakin?
D G
And I?m writing you this letter edged in black
[Verse]
G D
I bowed my head in sorrow and then in silence
G
The sunshine of my life it all has fled
C
Since the postman brought that letter yesterday mornin?
D G
Sayin? come home my boy your poor old mother?s day
[Verse]
G D
Those angry words I wish I?d never spoken
G
You know I never meant them don?t you Jack
C
May the angels bear me witness I am asking
D G
Your forgiveness in this letter edged in black
