Em D B7us
Someone found a letter you wrote me, on the radio
Em Am D Dsus
And they told the world just how you felt
Gmaj7 C
It must have fallen out of a hole in your old brown overcoat
Am
They never said your name
D B7
But I knew just who they meant
Em D B7us
I was so surprised and shocked, and I wondered, too
Em Am D Dsus
If by chance you heard it for yourself
Gmaj7 C
I never told a soul just how I've been feeling over you
Am
But they said it really loud
D B7 Em
They said it on the air On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa, oh, oh On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa oh oh oh On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa, oh, oh Whoa, oh, oh
Em D B7us
Now Don't it kinda strike you sad when you hear our song
Em Am D Dsus
Things are not the same since we broke up last June
Gmaj7 C
The only thing that I wanna hear is that you love me still
Am D B7
And that you think you'll be comin' home real soon
Whoa
Em D B7us
And it made me feel proud when I heard you say
Em Am D Dsus
You couldn't find the words to say it all yourself
Gmaj7 C
And now in my heart I know I can say what I really mean
Am
'Cause they said it really loud
D B7 Em
They said it on the air On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa, oh, oh On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa oh oh oh On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa, oh, oh Whoa, oh, oh
SOLO
Em D B7us
If you think that love isn't found on the radio
Em Am D DDus
Well tune right in you may find the love you lost
Gmaj7 C
'Cause now I'm sitting here with the man I sent away long ago
Am D B
He found he really lied he said he realy lied
Em
On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa oh oh oh On the radio
Am Bm Em
Whoa, oh, oh Whoa, oh, oh
