[Intro]
C Fmaj7 G x2

[Verse 1]
C                             Fmaj7
Well, I found a bunch of letters they were written for the fella
                        G
Who broke your Momma's heart
C                  Fmaj7                 G
And the envelope folds smelled of her ancient perfume
Fmaj7                       G
I'll bet she didn't know
C              C/B               Am              Fmaj7            G
How to respond before the blankets of snow caught him out wandering alone
C        Fmaj7            C
With no place to go

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                   G
And there was stars in the sky
C               C/B                   Am
There were houses on the hill and there were bottles of pills
Fmaj7             G             C             Fmaj7               C
That were easy to buy, keep her warm from the oncoming storm

[Verse 2]
C                            Fmaj7
Well, I found them in the north-west corner of the attic in a box
                          G
Labeled 'Tinsel and Lights'
C                 Fmaj7             G
Didn't know what I was looking, maybe just a blanket or artifacts
Fmaj7                       G
Eisenhower sent him to war
C              C/B                 Am                        Fmaj7
He kept her picture in his pocket that was closest to his heart and when he hit
G             C               Fmaj7           C
the shore, must of been a target for the gunner-men

[Chorus]
Fmaj7                   G
There were stars in the sky
C               C/B        Am
And there were bunkers on the hill and there were caskets to fill
Fmaj7                   G                C
Where he would lie, shrouded in the red, white and blue with the stripes
Fmaj7                              G
There were stars in the sky
C                C/B                               Am
There were houses on the hill and there were bottles of pills
Fmaj7                  G              C             Fmaj7               C
That were easy to buy to keep her warm from the oncoming storm
