G C G I am sending you a postcard from the United States G C D With words on the back, never got a chance to say C D Em When it soars across that pond and reaches your house G C G May it leave you with closure and a little less doubt [Verse 2] G C G Hope you eased up on the drinking, hope you laugh, hope you care G C D Hope your days are even better than the ones that we shared C D Em And I hope that you find love, settle down somewhere new G C G And I hope that this world sees who I see in you [Chorus] C C Csus2 G I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried C C Csus2 D I know we felt the same way, but the timing wasn’t right C G C G Ships in the night, ships in the night C G [Verse 2] G C G Since the last time I saw you, well, I’ve seen better days G C D The person that I used to be seems so far away C D Em And she’s not traveling down God’s highway, in books, or melodies G C G But maybe in these words is where you will find me [Chorus] C C Csus2 G I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried C C Csus2 D I know we felt the same way, but the timing wasn’t right C G C G Ships in the night, ships in the night C G [Chorus] C C Csus2 G I know you tried to reach me, I know you tried C C Csus2 D I know we felt the same way, but the timing wasn’t right C G C G C G Ships in the night, ships in the night, ships in the night C G [Outro] C Bm From this Arizonan desert to your cold English shores D C G I’m sending you my love, nothing more D C G I’m sending you my love and nothing more
