Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you
                    F#                                          Ab          Ebm
'Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
          Ab                                    Ebm
And I don't want to bother you anymore, 
               F#                                     C#  
I used to hope you'd come back But not anymore Dana.

My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
Dana, my darling, would be so bad.

'Cause Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
                  Ab                              Ebm
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore
                     F#                                      C#

Your father disowned you because you have sinned
F#                                          Ab               Ebm
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
          Ab                                            Ebm
And I hope you won't do those things anymore
 F#                             C#  
Dana my darling I'm waiting for

Ebm              F#           B             C#                 Ebm             F#             B   
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, How I wish that my Dana was here

Little Dana O'Hara decided one day To travel away, far away


Ab                                        Ebm
No, you cannot surprise me anymore
B                    F#
I have seen it all before
Ab                              Ebm
But it seems I cannot let you go

F#                        C#
I don't think that I told you,
B                     Ebm
I'd wait for you forever
F#                                         C#
Now I know someone else's holding you,
                  B                              B - Bbm - Ab
So, for the first time in my life - I must lie
Ab             F#
Lie's a sin, mess that I am in,
B                       C#    Ebm
Love is not the thing I feel now
Ab                      F#
I promise you: I won't write again
B                       Bbm           F#
'til the sun sets behind your grave

Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you,
I heard you passed away it was a beautiful day
I'm old and I feel time will come for me,
My diary's pages are full of thee

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away
