Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you
F# As Ebm
'Cause your father passed away, it was a beautiful day
As Ebm
And I don't want to bother you anymore,
F# C#
I used to hope you'd come back But not anymore Dana.
My eyes might have betrayed me, but I have seen
Your picture on the cover of a filthy magazine
And I think my heart just cannot handle that
Dana, my darling, would be so bad.
Ebm F# C# B
Dana, my darling, I'm writing to you.
F# As Ebm
'Cause Your mother passed away it was a really rainy day
As Ebm
And I didn't mean to bother you anymore
F# C#
Your mother wished: Come visit your fathers grave, Dana
Ebm C# B
Your father disowned you because you have sinned
F# As Ebm
But he did forgive you in condition he was in
As Ebm
And I hope you won't do those things anymore

Dana my darling I'm waiting for

Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear, How I wish that my Dana was here

Now I know someone else's holding you,

So, for the first time in my life - I must lie
As F#
Lie's a sin, mess that I am in,
B C# Ebm
Love is not the thing I feel now
As F#
I promise you: I won't write again
B Bm F#
'til the sun sets behind your grave
Dana, oh, Dana I'm writing to you,
I heard you passed away it was a beautiful day
I'm old and I feel time will come for me,
My diary's pages are full of thee
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away
Little Dana O'Hara oh, Dana my dear,
How I wish that my Dana was here
Little Dana O'Hara decided one day
To travel away, far away
