Standard (EADGBE)

It's 6 AM and the sun is getting high

He picks up the mail from the slot

He feels the rush of excitement as he holds it in his hand

Another love note no one got

Some postman is grooving to all our love letters

Some postman is gonna cry

Some postman is grooving to all our love letters

Some postman is gonna cry, gonna cry, gonna cry

It's noon now and all the mailboxes have been emptied

And all the letters are inside

He counts them, he checks them, he looks for clues and finds

The ones with hearts on the outside

++CHORUS ++

+(SOLO) Same as verse chords

Holding onto a package meant for a distant lover

Thought it would be there overnight

She waits and she cries and she thinks he does not love her

The postman holds on oh so tight

++CHORUS ++

You [you], Crushed [crushed], Paper hearts

Stole [stole], And sold [sold], And ripped apart

Your promise was sent but you never delivered to me

Some postman you turned out to be
