[Intro] G Bm   x2
[Verse]    
G                             Bm
Dear Mr. God, I'm writin' You today,
    C                                   D
Be-cause it seems like lately I've for-gotten how to pray
         G                Bm
I know I don't, need this pen,
     C                        D
But everybody likes to get a letter now and then
          C                D
I'm sorry for, not writin' more
[Chorus]
             Em             D   D5  D
Cause I need you, but it's hard to see
     G                          D       D11  D
Why anyone as big as You needs anything from me
               Em        D     D11   D
I know You're there, so how've You been?
G                                 D
I'm alright but I can't lie some-times,
D5   D             C                   D
I feel like givin' in, You're all I've got,
[Verse]
G                        Bm
Dear Mr.God, sometimes I wish You lived next door
         C                                 D
So over coffee You could tell me what You started all this for
           G                         Bm
I guess you saw, that sunrise yester-day,
 C                                   D
Thanks for the reminder that You're never gone away
            C                       D
It gives me hope ,tellin' You what You already know
[Chorus]
        Em           D    D5  D
I need you, but it's hard to see,
     G                    D     D11          D
Why anyone as big as You needs anything from me
              Em         D     D11   D
I know You're there, so how've You been? 
G                                 D
I'm alright but I can't lie some-times,
                  C
I feel like givin in,
Em C G D 
[Verse]
G                     Bm
Dear Mr. God, tell me do You ever cry,
      C                              D
When we forget to thank You for the good things in our lives
         G                    Bm
I know I can't, always under-stand,
C                                D
Why You do the things You do but I know in the end
             C              D             Em
I'll make it through, if I stand, next to You,
         D
So here I am,
G                  Bm
Dear Mr. God, I'm writin' you today,
    C                                   D              G
