Richard Thompson - Tear Stained Letter Live Chords

[Intro]
E   A   E   A   D   G

[Verse 1]
       E
It was three in the morning when she took me apart
     A
She wrecked the furniture, she wrecked my heart
     E
She danced on my head like Arthur Murray
    A
The scars ain't never going to mend in a hurry
D
Just when I thought I could learn to forget her
G
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter

[Chorus]
B       C
Oh, oh, oh love love
D
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
G
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

B       C
Oh, oh, oh love love love
D
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
G
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

[Verse 2]
         E
Well my head was beating like a song by the Clash
        A
It was writing cheques that my body couldn't cash
E
Got to my feet, I was reeling and dizzy
A
I went for the 'phone but the line was busy
D
Just when I thought that things would get better
G
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter

[Chorus]
B       C
Oh, oh, oh love love
D
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
G
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

B       C
Oh, oh, oh love love love
D
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
G
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter

[Verse 3]
E
Well I like coffee and I like tea
A
But I just don't like this fiddle-di-dee
E
It makes me nervous, it gives me the hives
A
Waiting for a kiss from a bunch of fives
D
Just when I think I could learn to forget her
G
Right through the door come a tear-stained letter

[Chorus]
B       C
Oh, oh, oh love love
D
Cry, cry if it makes you feel better
G
Set it all down in a tear-stained letter
