Chris Rea - Letter from Amsterdam: chords

C#m                  G#m
Snow hard up against my doorway
          A                B
And it's falling twice as fast
C#m                          G#m
Funny I was just thinking of you my friend
     F#m                 B
How long you were gonna last

E/G#                          F#m7
Driving those blizzards cross Europe
E/G#               F#m7
Snow chains on you back
E/G#       F#m7
64 feet of mobile thunder
E/G#                F#m7 A B
Leaving a ten wheel track

Chorus:
E
It's good to hear from you, go easy when you can
My day is better for your letter from Amsterdam

I stand alone by the cenotaph
Where the unknown soldier lies
And it's somewhere out there that you are
This freedom angel died

To save us from depression
Today i look around,
boys our age and younger
I fear we let them down

Chorus

The town square's disappearing
It drifts up to my knees
Midnight silence deafening
And my feet begin to freeze

Is it because we don't remember?
We cannot understand?
But me and the unknown soldier
Got your letter from Amsterdam

E A E
From
A                       E
Your letter from Amsterdam
A                  E
Letter from Amsterdam
A                  E
Letter from Amsterdam
A
Letter, letter, letter
A                  E
Letter from Amsterdam
