[Intro]
C Bm Am7
Too-la-la taaaaa ta-da
C Bm Am7
Too-la-la taaaaa ta-da
C B Bb Am G G
Laaa-lalala laaaaa laaa-lalala
[Verse 1]
G G
I hope you don't mind if I send you a thought
C G Am7
You're still the special person for me
G
I know I should reserve that feeling for her
C G Am7
But I have fallen down a well of longing
C Bm Em
I'm in a valley deep inside the earth
Am7 Am
I'm in a rich vein of learning
C Bm Em
I'm stuck still in the depth of the mud
F C
Just God and tree and star for the journey
[Verse 2]
G G
So listen friend you've got my love and respect
C G Am7
Do you believe in the life eternal?
G G
I've got a feeling we'll be talking tonight
C G Am7
Because I knew you when we were so little
C Bm Em
I knew you when I was a queer fish
Am7 Am
You were the one they all wanted
C Bm Em
I showered you with my light from afar
F C
Now everyone is following you
G G
You're the evening star
[Chorus]
Em Em
So many forces are pushing
A Bm Em
How do you stay so calm?
Em C
If I could master an hour of your peace
Bm Bb Am G G
Maybe I would know how to let this go
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G G
I messed up on the practical side
C Bm Am7
I can't believe all the trouble it caused me
G G
I tried to make up on the spiritual side
C G Am7
My web of prayers and advice implore you
C Bm Em
To live happy in the best way you can
Am7 Am
To live with or without me
C Bm Em
And if I feel like I am wasting my time
F C
I'll write another letter to sing
G G
To the evening star
[Outro]
Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
Am G G
I'll write another letter to her
Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
Am G G
I'll write another letter to her
Am7
Evening sta-a-ar
Am Cm7 Cm
Another letter to her
