Let You Down

Intro: She turned 21 in April, You know her birthday's the same as mine When we first met she'd never left Texas She was young and so confused She got caught up in the bright lights The whiskey, pills and all those late nights From the mountain where we standing, She fell so far that she could not see And I was angry when I woke up When I found out that we broke up She packed her bags, she was gone before the sun She left a letter on the table, Said catch me if you're able But I'll be moving fast and I'm still hard to find So I wont call you and I wont follow Cause the truth is hard to swallow Said I'd pick you up, but I'd only let you down. Heard from a friend you moved back to Corpus You always loved that ocean air I know that you know that I'm headed down that way Dont worry cause I wont call It'd be strange for me to see you You know there's so much left unsaid Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down (Solo) -- Chorus Chord Progression Wrote you a letter while in Corpus It took everything I had Went down to the pier and looked out across that bay Took that letter then I watched it burn away (Chorus) Said I'd pick you up but I'd only let you down
