A6            C/D            A6  C/D
You have one letter left to send
A6         C/D           A6  C/D
With no beginning and no end
D            C
You saw them in the park
D            C               A6
The laughter in the dark, oh no
            C/D             A6  C/D
How can you face him and pretend

Chorus:
Gm7                  Am7           Gm7
So now you thank him carefully, oh no
                           Am7             Gm7
'Cause that's the way he's going to be, oh no
                      Am7           D C D C
I hope you find some reason to be free

There is no sunshine in your eyes
You make no sound and yet you cry
It's not the double cross
You feel the love you lost, oh no
This letter has to say goodbye

Chorus

D            C
You saw them in the park
D            C               A6
The laughter in the dark, oh no
            C/D             A6   C/D
How can you face him and pretend

Chorus
