[C ]Sat down to write [Em wd] a note to you today [Am]

[F]Sat down to write a [G]note to you [C]today
Ê
[C]The wind outside is [Em.wd] blowin mighty [Am]hard
[C]Sending things [Em wd] flying thru the [Am] yard

[F] And finish up the [G] note I [C Em Am]tried to write to [Am]you

[F] If they donât [G] sound just right
[C] Will you [Em wd Am] understand?

[C] But I donât have [Em wd] anything else to [Am] hold and bide

[F] And finish what I [G] started, the [C]note Iâm[Em] writin to [Am]you
Ê
[C] Sat down to [Em wd]write a note to you [Am] today
[C] Now itâs nearly [Em wd] midnite, my thoughts never [Am] stay
