Dana my darling, I’m writing to you
           G                  
Cause your father passed away,
          Am        Em 
it was a beautiful day
      Am                       Em
And I don’t want to bother you anymore
          G                    
I used to hope you’d come back, 
     Dsus4       D
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

Verse:
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                      
Your mother wished you'd come visit 
      Dsus4          D
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

Сhorus:

               G      Am
I have seen it all before
                      Em
But it seems I cannot let you go anyhow

Bridge 2:
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
