Verse I:

       E5                            B5
I don't know how to make lots of money
       E5                         B5
I got debts that I'm trying to pay
        A5                        E5
I can't buy you nice things, like big diamond rings
     A5                       B5
But that don't mean much anyway
         E5                             B5
I can't give you the house you've been dreaming
      E5                        B5
If I could I would build it alone
         A5                    E5
I'd be out there all day, just hammering away
   A5                   B5
Make us a place of our own

Chorus:
                                                    Bass:D | ------2-4-- | 
C#5       A5          E5      (B5 )                          E--2s4------
I will write you a song
C#5               A5             E5            B5
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#5       A5          E5       ( B5 )                    Bass:D------2-4--
I will write you a song                                  E | --2s4------ | 
        C#5                A5           E5           B5             E5 
And you'll know from this song that I just can't go on without you

Interlude: (Do Intro Chords and Lead)

Verse II:

            E5                      B5
I don't know that I'd make a good soldier
          E5                            B5
I don't believe in being violent and cruel
           A5                           E5
I don't know how to fight, but I'll draw blood tonight
   A5                         B5
If somebody tries hurting you 

Chorus:
                                                    Bass:D | ------2-4-- | 
C#5       A5          E5      ( B5 )                          E--2s4------
I will write you a song
C#5               A5             E5            B5
That's how you'll know that my love is still strong
C#5       A5          E5       ( B5 )                    Bass:D------2-4--
I will write you a song                                  E | --2s4------ |

Bridge:

               C#5                                    A5
Now that it's out on the table (it's out on the table)
             B5                            A5
Both of us knew all along (knew all along)
               E5         B5             C#5
I've got your love and you've got my song

I can't say where we'll go, but the one thing I know

Until I die that's what I'll do
