Capo on 1st fret
Unopened
G C
There's a key in a letter unopened
G D
Buried back in an old dresser drawer
G C
There's a name stained with tears on that letter
G C D G
One that I'm sure I've never seen before
G C
There's no date on that letter unopened
G D
My guess is it's faded with years
G C
And I can't sleep at night now for wonderin'
G D G
How long has that secret been hiding here
(Chorus)
D
Did you love someone, lose someone
G
Leave someone waiting
A
Is there somebody's heart out there
D
You could have taken
G
The letter says it all
C G
Though the words go unspoken
C G D G
You loved me enough to leave it unopened
G C
There's a love that is trust without reason
G D
There's a faith that leaves questions unasked
G C
And though my heart has searched for the answers
G D G
I love you too much for these lips to ask
(Repeat chorus)
G
Oh, the letter says it all
C G
Though the words go unspoken
C G D G
And, I love you enough to leave it unopened
