Intro:  ( C7  F  G  C )??   
(I'm working on a chart that will better show how to pick out the intro.,  
instrumental between verses, and the ending.  I'll send this separately) 
 
C                                G                 C      
I recognize the writing,  on the plain white envelope. 
Am                        F         C          G         F 
I've wondered where she'd wind up,  before she called or wrote. 
F                 C                    G                F 
The answer's in a circle,  through the word 'Love' on a stamp, 
Dm         G      C

C                                       G           C      
I'd have bet on California,  'cause her sister's in Bel Aire. 
   Am          F                  C       G      F 
Or I could see Seattle,  with her mom and dad up there. 
F                   C            G            F 
She never mentioned Alabama,  so I don't understand. 
Dm         G      C

Chorus: 
Am                G            F             C  G 
A two-page letter written on,  Ramada stationary.   
Am    G     F 
Dated April twenty-two. 
Dm                                        F 
She asked me not to hate her,  said she's sorry.   
    Dm                F               G   ?  ? 
But leavin's what she felt she had to do. 
 
       C                              G             C 
So the day she left she made it,  two hundred miles south. 
        Am                    F 
Did she settle there, did she mail this note  
   C       G      F 
on her way out of town. 
     F                  C                   G           F 
What chance is there to find her,  when the only clue I have is 
Dm         G      C

Repeat Chorus 
 
      C                                  G             C 
Every day down by the mailbox,  standin' on the curb I check. 
    Am               F                 C       G       F 
The upper right hand corner,  of every piece of mail I get. 
F                           C 
Hopin' there's that certain circle,   
            G                F 
Through the word 'Love' on a stamp. 
Dm         G      C      
Postmarked Birmingham,   
Dm         G      C7  F  G  C 
Postmarked Birmingham.
