      D      C         D             G       D
Every time I read your letter, tears fill my eyes

     G                                   D
When I get to the part where you say goodbye

    D                              G
You said that I’d be better off, I wish I felt the same

          D                        A              D
I guess I will when there’s not a tear left to my name
[Verse 2]
           D          C     D                    G      D
Well, your words have run together and caused my crying eyes

    G                             D
But I’ve got this old letter memorized

   D                                        G
If I don't lose these thoughts of you, I'll slowly go insane

      D                   A              D
Baby, when there’s not a tear left to my name
[Chorus]
G                                  D
When there's not a tear left to my name

      G                                Bb  A
Baby, then my heart can let go of this   pain

     D               C           G                Gm
When will I think of you and not feel that I'm to blame?

      D                   A              D
Baby, when there's not a tear left to my name (to my name)
[Verse 3]
     D        C      D                         G     D
This house is like a prison, it feels like I'm doing time

     G                                D
I've cried so much, I think I’m going blind

      D                             G
Well, will you ever pardon me? When will it ever change?

      D                   A              D
Baby, when there’s not a tear left to my name
[Chorus]
G                                  D
When there's not a tear left to my name

      G                                Bb  A
Maybe then my heart can let go of this   pain

     D               C           G                Gm
When will I think of you and not feel that I'm to blame?

      D                   A              D
Baby, when there's not a tear left to my name

     D               C           G                       C  G  Gm
When will I think of you and not feel that I'm to blame?

     D                   A              D
Only when there's not a tear left to my name (to my name)
