D                        A
  It ain't natural for a delta man

G                  A
  to be surrounded   by all this sand,

D                    A
  to fear the echoes   of live rounds,

G                A
  to never sleep   when the sun goes down.
[Bridge]
Bm        A                G
  So, I'm writing you this letter,

         D/F#               Em7                     Asus  A7
to say I miss you more than ever and to promise you this ...
[Chorus]
G        A               D        D
  When I make it back to Memphis,

G           A              D              Bm
  I'm gonna take you in my arms and never let you go

G            A             D        F#7             Bm       A
  and girl I promise you a kiss for every day we've missed,

G        A               D              D
  'til I make it back to Memphis.
[Verse 2]
D                                A
  I'll have to say I think we've done some good

     G                      A
if I had to do it all again   I know I would.

D                                 A
  There's still a few shots every now and then

         G                         A
but they say this thing is finally coming to an end.
[Bridge]
Bm               A           G
  So, this might be my final letter

          D/F#       Em7                            Asus  A7
I say the sooner the better cause I'm ready to come home.
[Chorus]
G        A               D        D
  When I make it back to Memphis,

G           A              D              Bm
  I'm gonna take you in my arms and never let you go

G            A             D        F#7             Bm       A
  and girl I promise you a kiss for every day we've missed,

G        A               D             D
  'til I make it back to Memphis.
[Bridge]
Bm              A            G             A              Bm
  She reads his letters everyday, then she puts them all away,

            A           G                   D/F#        Em       N.C.
next to his medal and a flag that she would gladly give back,
[End-Chorus]
G             A                 D          D
  if it would bring him back to Memphis,

G              A               D              Bm
  so, he could take her in his arms and never let her go,

G           A              D        F#7               Bm         A
  'cause he promised her a kiss for every day they've missed,

G        A               D          D
 'til he made it back to Memphis,

G                  A               D        C
  if he could only make it back to Memphis,

G       D       D      D     D
back to Memphis,

        D       D      D     D
back to Memphis,

        D
back to Memphis.
