  			Intro Chord - D 
 
(verse) 
 
D                      A         
It ain't natural for a delta man, 
G                    A 
To be surrounded by all this sand, 
D                 A 
To fear the echoes of live rounds, 
G             A 
To never sleep when the sun goes down, 
 
 
(Bridge) 
 
Bm        A              G 
So I'm writing you this letter, 
         D                   Em7                    Asus 
To say I miss you more than ever and to promise you this, 

G       A               D 
WHEN I make it back to Memphis, 
G          A              D 
I'm gonna take you in my arms, 
          Bm          G 
And never let you go, 
            A             D 
And girl I promise you a kiss, 
    F#m              Bm   A - G 
For every day we've missed, 
       A                     D 
'Til I make it back to Memphis, 
 
 
(verse) 
 
I'll have to say I think we've done some good 
If I had to do it all again I know I would 
There's still a few shots every now and then 
But they say this thing is finally coming to an end 
 
(bridge) 
So this might be my final letter 
I say the sooner the better cause I'm ready to come home 
 
(chorus) 
When I make it back to Memphis 
I'm gonna take you in my arms 
And never let you go 
And girl I promise you a kiss 
For every day we've missed 
'Til I make it back to Memphis 
 
(bridge) 
 
Bm            A            G 
She reads his letters everyday,  
         A                 Bm 
Then she puts them all away, 
            A           G 
Next to his medal and a flag,  
               F#m         Em - D - G 
That she would gladly give back, 

    G       A                  D 
If it would bring him back to Memphis, 
   G          A              D 
So he could take her in his arms, 
     A    Bm         G 
And never let her go, 
             A           D 
Cause he promised her a kiss, 
    F#m               Bm  - A - G 
For every day they've missed, 
         A                 D 
'Til he made it back to Memphis, 
       G          A                   D  - C - G - D 
If he could only make it back to Memphis, 
D 
Back to Memphis
