Empty old mailbox down there by the road
C
G
Mail truck drives by but it don’t even slow
C

Sweet honeysuckle grows over the place
D7
G
Where your farewell words took the smile from my face
C

Empty old mailbox and a heart full of pain
C

Seasons roll by but the hurtin’s the same

Darling please write me don’t waste precious time

Or you’ll have an empty old mailbox like mine

A lonely old dog wandered by there today
C
G
He sniffed for a moment then went on his way
C
G
A pair of young bluebirds out seeking to nest
D7
G
Passed over the mailbox like all of the rest
C
G
Empty old mailbox and a heart full of pain

Seasons roll by but the hurtin’s the same

I say I won’t go to the mailbox today
C
G
That lasts ’til eleven then I’m on my way
C
G
Down at the mailbox I’m faced with the truth
D7

It’s empty as promises given by you
C

Empty old mailbox and a heart full of pain
