   Eb
Hello

Do you remember me
          Cm
I am your long lost pen pal
   Ab                 Bb                Eb         Bb
It must have been ten years ago we last wrote
  Eb
I don’t really know what happened
        Cm
I guess life came in the way
       Ab                     Bb
Let me know if you’re still alive
       Ab               Bb                 Eb         
Let me know if you ever used that knife or not

   Eb
Hello

Yes I remember you
           Cm
I’ve got a husband and two children now
  Ab                        Bb                  Eb      Bb
I work as an accountant and make fairly good money
Eb                                    Cm
I still have your letters, you used a pink pen to write them
    Ab                Bb
And you would comfort me
        Ab                    Bb
when my tears would stain the ink
    Ab               Bb                  Eb            Bb
And I would send you mix tapes with Kate Bush on

Ab              Bb              Eb            Bb/D
    I have to admit I sometimes lied in those letters
Cm            Ab   Bb             Ab
Tried to make life better than it was
               Bb
I still wasn’t kissed at sixteen
                   Eb
And I still need a friend

Eb
There was this letter
        Cm
I never told you this back then
    Ab                  Bb              Eb            Bb
But it would be fair to say it saved my life
Eb
I sat in the window
             Cm
The only one left out from a party again
       Ab                     Bb
Pretty sure I didn’t have a single friend
                   Eb           Bb
Then I checked the mailbox

Eb
Dear long lost penpal
      Cm
I was lying the whole time
    Ab        Bb                    Eb         Bb
I’m really a 46 years old man named Luke
Eb
I have three children
      Cm
and a wife, she doesn’t care
      Ab                Bb
And I hope you don’t resent me
      Ab              Bb
And I hope you do not hate me
    Ab                    Bb                           Eb         Bb
For trying to find my way back to what it’s like to be young


Ab              Bb              Eb            Bb/D
    I have to admit I sometimes lied in those letters
Cm            Ab   Bb             Ab
Tried to make life better than it was
               Bb
I still wasn’t kissed at sixteen
                   Eb
And I still need a friend
