Wilco - Box Full of Letters

Box Full of Letters

This is a real cool, easy song.  I've seen Jeff use a capo live, so
I did the same thing.  It is also simple without one (I wrote the chords
down for convience, without capo play E B A Gbm A instead of D A D Em
G).

Box Full of Letters
Jeff Tweedy
Wilco, A.M. (1995)

Capo at 2 - Chords written 2 1/2 steps down for my convienience

Verse 1:
 D  		A  		G
I've got a box full of letters
Em 			G
Think you might like to read
D  		A  		G
Some things you might like to read
Em 			G
But they're all addressed to me
D  		A  		G
I wish I had a lot of answers
Em 			G
'cause that's the way it should be
D  		A  		G
But with all these questions
Em 			G
Being directed at me
D		A		G
Just can't find the time to write my mind
D
The way I want it to read

[Chorus]
A		D	G G/F#
You'll come back again
A		D	G G/F#
And I'll still be your friend

[Verse 2]
I got a lot of your records
In a seperate stack
Somethings I might like to hear
But I guess I'll give 'em back
I wish I had a lot of answers
'cause that's the way it should be
But with all these questions
Being directed at me
Just can't find the time to write my mind
The way I want it to read

[Chorus]
[solo=verse]
D		A		G
Just can't find the time to write my mind
D
The way I want it to read
