The Great Mail Robbery chords by Rex Allen Jr.
Verse 1
G
He met me at the corner
with his hand above his hip,
prepared to shoot me down
Am
with his toy gun.
D
He said, I've got a little score
to settle with you, sir,
and it's all about the way
G
you hurt my mom.
It seems that you've forgotten
there's a letter in your pouch
The one to tell her where
C
my daddy's gone
D
And you'd better hand it over
if you don't want to fight
Because today I'm bringing
G
daddy's letter home
I asked him what his name was
He said my name is Tim
And I'm mama's little
Am
man at six years old
D
Don't ask me any questions,
cause I'm here to rob the mail
And you'd better do exactly
G
like you're told
Cause last night I heard mama cry
and call my daddy's name
C
She kept me up all night until the dawn
D
I'm really not a bad guy,
I don't want to shoot you down
But today I'm bringing
G
Daddy's letter home
Ab
Then his lips began to tremble
and his hands began to shake
He said, I don't believe
Bbm
you understand
Eb
Since my daddy went away
and left us here alone,
Ab
I've done my best to be a little man.
I thought that it might help my mom
if I could rob the mail
and try to find out where
C#
my daddy's gone.
Eb
And the last thing that I promised her
when I strapped on my guns
Today I'm bringing
Ab
Daddy's letter home
Ever since that day that Timmy
tried to rob the mail
I've wondered how a kid
C#
could be so strong
Eb
The last thing that he promised her
when he strapped on his guns
Ab
Today I'm bringing Daddy's let ter home.
