[INTRO] Em G C D Em G C Em G C D Em G C [VERSE]
Em                   D          Em
Dana my darling, I’m writing to you

           G                            Am        Em
Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day

      Am                       Em
And I don’t want to bother you anymore

          G                         Dsus4       D
I used to hope you’d come back, but not anymore Dana

   Em                           D          Em
My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen

     G                         Am         Em
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine

      Am                         Em
And I think my heart just cannot handle that

G                      Dsus4 D
Dana my darling, would be so bad

Em                  D          Em
Dana my darling I’m writing to you

     G                           Am           Em
Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day

      Am                        Em
And I didn’t mean to bother you anymore

            G                            Dsus4          D
Your mother wished you'd come visit your fathers grave, Dana

     Em                    D              Em
Your father disowned you because you have sinned

G                            Am            Em
But he did forgive you in condition he was in

      Am                             Em
And I hope you won’t do those things anymore

G                   Dsus4   D       
Dana my darling I’m waiting for
[CHORUS]
       Em     G        C       D
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear

      Em           G        C
How I wish that my Dana was here

       Em     G      C         D
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day

   Em      G        C    G/B  Am
To travel away, faraway
[BRIDGE 1]
                          Em          D
No, you can’t surprise me anymore (woooah)

               C      G    Am
I have seen it all before

                      Em
But it seems I cannot let you go anyhow

D
Dana, Dana, Dana, Dana

Em                    D                                
   And I think that I told you

C                      Em
   I’d wait for you forever

D                     
   Now I know someone else’s holding you

              C                       G/B     
   So for the first time in my life I must lie

Am              G    
   Lie’s a sin, mess that I am in

C                  D       Em
   Love is not the thing I feel know

Am                 G   
   I promise you I won’t write again 

           C          Em        Gm

I heard you passed away it was a beautiful day

    Am                       Em
I’m old and I feel time will come for me
