Intro: D Em A D
D G
They kissed goodbye at the terminal gate
A D G-D
She said you're gonna be late if you dont go
D G
He held her tight, said I'll be alright
A D
And I'll call tonight to let you know
Em A D
He bought a postcard, on the front it just said Heaven
Em A D
With a picture of the ocean and the beach
Em A D
And the simple words he wrote her said he loved her and they
Bm Em A
They told her, how he'd hold her if his arms would reach
D G
Wish you were here, wish you could see this place
Em A
Wish you were near, wish I could touch your face
G A D G
The weather's nice, it's paradise, it's summertime all year
Em A
There's some folks we know, they say hello, I miss you so
D
Wish you were here
D Em A D
D G
She got a call that night, but it wasnt from him
A D G-D
It didn't sink in right away
D G
Ma'am the plane went down, our crews have searched the ground
A D
No survivors found she heard him say
Em A D
But somehow she got a postcard in the mail that just said Heaven
Em A D
With a picture of the ocean and the beach
Em A D
And the simple words he wrote her said he loved her and they
Bm Em A
They told her, how he'd hold her if his arms would reach
CHORUS
