ch]G[/ch
A cowpoke rode in one hot dusty day
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
To a store down in old San Antone
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
He stood at the window and I heard him say
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Do I have a letter from home
ch]G[/ch
The postmaster looked through the mail that had come
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
Then smilingly shook his grey head
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The cowpoke looked sadly a moment at him
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And these are the words that he said
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
No letter from home, no letter from home
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
There's never a letter from home
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
No message from Mother or none of the others
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
There's never a letter from home

ch]G[/ch
That night he was shot on the wrong side of town
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
No more on those plains will he roam
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I reached for my Bible and gave it to him
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And said son here's your letter from home
ch]G[/ch
If only I had just a little more time
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
To read it The young cowboy said
ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
I can't take it with me and I must go on
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Then he died with his letter unread
//Repeat chorus
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The letter from home, the letter from home
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch
No time for the letter from home
ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
The cowboy lay dead with his letter unread
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
Too late for the letter from home
