Carl Smith - Airmail To Heaven Chords

C
A letter was written by a little girl's hand

       F                              C
It was sealed with her little heart's love

     G7                   C
Said airmail to heaven to daddy

        D7                    G7
To your new home somewhere up above


     C
As a postman I knew that it couldn't be mailed

       F                         C
And so I opened the letter and I read

F              C
To my surprise tears filled my eyes

       G7                   C
Here's what the little girl said


     C
Dear daddy mommy now loves someone new

    F                           C
She says that you're not coming home

    G7                C
She told me to try to understand

    D7                  G7
She can't go on living alone


       C
Please daddy don't be mad at mommy

          F                          C
She needs someone for all she's been through

      F             C
Cause he will never take your place

         G7                  C
He'll be just filling in for you


       C
I hope that you can forgive her

       F                        C
So I'm sealing this letter with love

        G7                    C
And I'm sending it airmail to heaven

        D7                    G7
To your new home somewhere up above 


     C
Well I finished and I folded the letter

    F                     C
The tears rolling down my face

    F                     C
For I was the new man she mentioned

        G7                 C
Who was taking her daddy's place


    F                     C
For I was the new man she mentioned

        G7                 C
Who was taking her daddy's place
