G7 C Am C Am7 CM7
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
C9 C CM7 F
And make believe it came from you.
Dm7 Dm7-5 G7
I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet,
C C/B Am7 Am7/G
They're gonna knock me off my feet.

A lotta kisses on the bottom -- I'll be glad I've got 'em.

And make believe it came from you.

And make believe it came from you -- oh yeah!

I'm gonna make believe it came from you.
Je vais droit à s'asseoir et à écrire moi-même une lettre And make believe it came from you (Et faire croire qu'il venait de vous) I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet (Je vais écrire des mots, oh, so sweet) They're gonna knock me off my feet (Ils me va frapper mes pieds) A lotta kisses at the bottom (A lotta baisers en bas) I'll be glad I got 'em I'll be glad I got 'em I'm gonna smile and say "I hope that you're much better" (Je vais sourire et dire: «J'espère que vous êtes beaucoup mieux") And then I'll close the way I do (Et puis je vais fermer ma façon de faire) I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter (Je vais droit à s'asseoir et à écrire moi-même une lettre) And make believe that it came from you (Et faire croire qu'il venait de vous) I'm gonna smile and say "I hope that you're much better" (Je vais sourire et dire: «J'espère que vous êtes beaucoup mieux") The I'll close "with love" the way you do (Je vais la fermer "avec amour" comme vous le faites) I'm gonna sit right down and knock out a very large letter (Je vais droit à s'asseoir et à frapper un très grand lettre) And make believe it came (Et faire croire qu'il est venu) Although it's not the same (Bien que ce n'est pas le même) I'll make believe it came from you (Je vais faire croire qu'il venait de vous)
