Chords

[Verse]
Bm                   F#m
Snow hard up against my doorway

         G              A
And it's falling twice as fast

Bm                           F#m
Funny I was just thinking of you my friend

    G                 A
How long you were gonna last
[Pre-Chorus]
D/F#                          Em7
Driving those blizzards cross Europe

D/F#               Em7
Snow chains on you back

D/F#       Em7
64 feet of mobile thunder

D/F#                Em7  G A
Leaving a ten wheel track
[Chorus]
D
It's good to hear from you, go easy when you can

D
My day is better for your letter from Amsterdam
[Verse]
Bm                   F#m
I stand alone by the Cenotaph

          G               A
Where the unknown soldier lies

Bm                                F#m
And it's somewhere out there that you are

G                  A
This freedom angel died
[Pre-Chorus]
D/F#              Em7
To save us from depression

D/F#          Em7
Today I look around

D/F#             Em7
Boys our age and younger

D/F#               Em7  G A
I fear we let them down
[Chorus]
D
It's good to hear from you, go easy when you can

D
My day is better for your letter from Amsterdam
[Solo] D7 G A# D Em7 D G D Em7 A7 D Em7 D G D Em7 A7 D Em7 D G D [Verse]
Bm                    F#m
The town square's disappearing

   G               A
It drifts up to my knees

Bm                   F#m
Midnight silence deafening

       G             A
And my feet begin to freeze
[Pre-Chorus]
D/F#                     Em7
Is it because we don't remember?

D/F#           Em7
We cannot understand?

D/F#                   Em7
But me and the unknown soldier

D/F#                 G A   D
Got your letter from Amsterdam
[Outro]
Dmaj7 G D
Froooooom

G                      D
Your letter from Amsterdam

G                 D
Letter from Amsterdam

G                 D
Letter from Amsterdam

G
Letter, letter, letter

G                 D
Letter from Amsterdam
