SOLDIER'S LAST LETTER
by Ernest Tubb [3/4 time]
Written by Sgt. Henry Stewart and Ernest Tubb
G D7
When the postman delivered a letter
G
It filled her dear heart full of joy
A7
But she didn't know till she read the inside
D7 G
It was the last one from her darling boy
D7
Dear Mom was the way that it started
G
I miss you so much it went on
A7
Mom I didn't know that I loved you so
D7 G
But I'll prove it when this war is won
D7
I'm writing this down in a trench Mom
G
Don't scold if it isn't so neat
A7
You know as you did when I was a kid
D7 G
And I'd come home with mud on my feet
D7
The captain just gave us our orders
G
And Mom we will carry them through
A7
I'll finish this letter the first chance I get
D7 G
But now I'll just say I love you
D7
Then the mother's old hands began to tremble
G
And she fought against tears in her eyes
A7
But they came unashamed for there was no name
D7 G
And she knew that her darling had died
D7
That night as she knelt by her bedside
G
She prayed Lord above hear my plea
A7
And protect all the sons that are fighting tonight
D7 G
