AT MAIL CALL TODAY
-- Gene Autry --
(G) At mail call to-day love your last letter (D7) came,
I just stood there smiling till they called my (G) name;
As I read it over my (G7) skies turned to (C) grey,
And (D7) tears dimmed my eyes love, at mail call (G) to-day.
I can't understand love what happened to (D7) you,
The day that I sailed love you said you'd be (G) true;
But now it's all over, what (G7) more can I (C) say,
My (D7) poor heart was broken at mail call (G) to-day.
I slept in the foxhole amid shot and(D7) shell,
I'm telling you darling it's worse than all(G) hell;
I thought you would wait love while(G7) I was(C) away,
But(D7) my castles tumbled at mail call(G) to-day.
I hope you'll be happy with somebody(D7) new,
But always remember my heart beats for(G) you;
Good luck and God bless you wher-(G7)ever you(C) stray,
The(D) world for me ended at mail call(G) to-day.
