Verse 1
G 
Dear mama, I hope that you're alright
I can hear the thunder rollin'
C 
Across the Southern sky tonight
G 
The kids are asleep and the T.V.'s on
And I'm sittin' here alone
C 
So I  thought I'd write this letter home
G 

Verse 2
G 
I  was the one you were
counting on
The families high school star
Jimmy and me ran off that summer
C 
Must have broken your
and daddy's heart
G 
We didn't need nobodies help
We were 18 years and grown
C 
That's why there was no
letter home

He told me that on New Year's Day

So there was no letter home
