A fantastic song from a fantastic band. Give it a go and give it 'laldy' as we say in Scotland. Enjoy this one that should have been tabbed ages ago. [email protected]. Bruce. The Proclaimers - Letter from America [Intro] C G Am G C G Am G [Chorus] C When you go will you send back F G C A letter from America C Take a look up the railtrack F G C From Miami to Canada [Verse 1] F Broke off from my work the other day Am I spent the evening thinking about Am7 Am All the blood that flowed away F Across the ocean to the second chance Am F G I wonder how it got on when it reached the promised land? [Chorus] F I've looked at the ocean Tried hard to imagine Am The way you felt the day you sailed Am7 Am From Wester Ross to Nova Scotia F We should have held you We should have told you Am But you know our sense of timing F G We always wait too long [Chorus] C G lochaber no more Am G Sutherland no more C G Lewis no more Am G Skye no more...... (x3) [Verse 2] F I wonder my blood Will you ever return Am To help us kick the life back Am7 Am To a dying mutual friend F Do we not love her? Do we not say we love her? Am Do we have to roam the world F G To prove how much it hurts? [Chorus] C G Bathgate no more Am G Linwood no more C G Methil no more Am G Irvine no more (4 times, then last line on 4th time 'Lochaber no more')
