Postmarked Virginia

[Verso 1]
 
C            G              D 
Got a letter postmarked Virginia, 
C                    G               D 
From a company that sells shoes and cutlery, 
C                 G             D                G 
But my mind was taken from the cutlery, to your face, 
C                  G                   D 
And I wanted to write you a letter so badly, 
C                    G               D 
Couldn't get up enough spit to lick the stamp, 
C                  G           D             G 
I've been so dry ever since you left me, all alone.

D                     G 
I hope you have some friends down there, 
D                G 
Hope you haven't cut your hair, 
D                  G 
Hope you got that degree you wanted, 
D                  G 
Hope you think of me sometimes.

A                     G 
Just because I didn't love you then, 
A                      G 
Doesn't mean I couldn't now, 
A                            G 
We could teach a dinosaur a new trick, 
         D            G 
With a letter, postmarked Virginia.

C                   G               D 
Still I wanted to tell you about my new life, 
C                  G           D 
How I made some money hauling logs, 
C                 G         D                G 
What it's like to pull into Montana, when it's raining.

D                G 
Hope you haven't cut your hair, 
D                      G 
Hope you got that parking space you wanted, 
D                  G 
Hope you think of me sometimes.
