Why Don’t You Write Me chords

Capo 1

D 
Why don't you write me, 

      
I'm out in the jungle, 

   E                     
I'm hungry to hear you. 

A7  
Send me a card, 

     
I am waiting so hard 

     Bm     F#m  
To be near yo-ou. 

D     G         
  (La, la, la) 

             D 
Why don't you write? 

             
Something is wrong 

                   E7          
And I know I got to be there. 

A7          
Maybe I'm lost, 

       
But I can't make the cost 

      Bm      F#m D 
Of the airfare, ooh 

        G         
 Tell me why, why, why 

       A            
Tell me why, why, why 

D            
Why don't you write me, 

    
A letter would brighten 

  E                     
My loneliest evening. 

A7  
Mail it today 

        
If it's only to say 

           Bm         F#m  
That you're Ieaving me, oo 

D     G      D  D7  
  (La, la, la) 

G7                                 
Monday morning, sitting in the sun 

                                        
Hoping and wishing for the mail to come 

D                         D7  
Tuesday, never got a word, mmm. 

G7                                  
Wednesday, Thursday, ain't no sign, 

                                 
Drank a half a bottle of iodine. 

D  
Friday, woe is me 

   D7                        G            
I'm gonna hang my body from the highest tree. 

              D 
 Why don't you write me? 

              G 
 Why don't you write me? 

              D
 Why don't you write me?
