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

My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen

Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
Am Em
And I think my heart just cannot handle that

Dana my darling, would be so bad

Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day

G Dsus4 D
Your mother wished you'd come visit 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

And I think that I told you

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

Lie’s a sin, mess that I am in

Love is not the thing I feel know

I promise you I won’t write again
