Track 3 Why Gon'y You Write

https://soundclick.com/r/s8f3kr

CO 03 Write   slow pick

                                C                                                F  C

Why don't you write,  Get yourself some paper

       F                       C                                G

Just pick up a pen and let your thoughts flow onto the page   

                      C                                                               F  C

It’s not so trite, just some old fashioned caper

F                   C                              G

Slow the pace down to a steadier age

 Am        G                                             C

Why don't you write                       Why don't you write

 

                         Dm                                       C                             G

You've been gone so long on this journey you're taking

                          Dm                                      C                             G

 And though love's still strong it just leaves me aching

                                Dm         C             Dm        C

And though we email text and video call

      Em                                         A

It's all too instant and impersonal

Bm                                            A

Though technology can keep us tied

    Em                             G

It still leaves me unsatisfied

 

Why don't you write

Give me something physical

Something you have held in your hand

It feels more right

Emotional and spiritual

Something that I hope you'll understand

So why don't you write, why don't you write

 

When you're so far away from my presence

I need to keep a hold of your deepest essence

I hope you feel the same as me

You won't get this from virtual reality

I need a keepsake very much

Something that we both have touched.

 

So why don't you write

Put a letter in an envelope

Send it travelling slowly o'er the sea

Ease my plight

Help keep up my hope

A talisman of love from you to me

Why don't you write, why don't you write
