#1.
E5
I tore my letter up..I couldn't even start..
B5 E5
to tell you what's really in my heart.
E5
There's only so much that words can say..
B5 E5
so, I sent you a piece of this beautiful day.
CHORUS:
E5 A5 E5
Oh, I want you to know that I took a rainbow,
B5 E5
and sent it off in a letter to you.
E5 A5 E5
Took some flowers in the spring..made a sweet clover ring,
B5 E5
and sent it off in a letter to you.
A5 E5 A5 E5
Took a song from the lark..the moon from the dark..
A5 E5 B5
a spark with the sparkling dew.
E5 A5 E5
With a kiss and a hug, and a whole lot of love,
B5 E5
I sent 'em off in a letter to you.

E5
I took the mornin' sun peekin' through the trees,
B5 E5
and the dandelion silk tangled in the breeze..
E5
I folded 'em up, sealed 'em with a kiss,
B5
it's the kind of letter that you can't resist.

E5
In a day or two..just you wait and see..
B5 E5
you're gonna get a special del..ive..ry.
E5
You'll know the way I feel..there can't be any doubt.
B5 E5
When you open it up..and let the love spill out.
