well these chords sound right to me.
EWriting the lines as they come to me
SAcratching them out almost immEediately
DAon't know what it's Fdone to meE  
It's cold and it's wet it's been raining all night
AAnd there's a letter I've been Etrying to write
ASomething better waiting sFomewhere for meE  
AOne of them is Csitting on the wrong coast
EOne awaits an C#manswer by return post
F#Waiting, F#mwaiting (wAaiting...)
ETry to remember how long it's been
There was Amore to us than pEaper and pen
AThink how easy it Fis to concealE  
EAnd I know when we're together again
AWe'll be strangers for an Ehour and then
AWe'll have to figure out if Fthis thing is realE  
AOne of them is sCitting on the East coast
EOne awaits an aC#mnswer by return post
F#Waiting, F#mwaiting  (Awaiting)E

Athere's a letter i've Egotta write
Asomethin' better is wFaiting  for me..E.
AOne of them is sCitting on the East coast
EOne awaits an aC#mnswer by return post
