(verse)
Am                Dm           Am          Dm
I thought it was funny when you missed the train
Am                 Dm                 Am          E
When I rang you at home they said you left yesterday
Am                 Dm            Am         Dm
I thought it was strange when your car was found
Am              Dm            Am            E
By the tree in ennis where we used to hang around

(chorus)
      Am       G                    Dm
Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what you've done is right
       Am                  G                          Dm
Oh it's been such hell, I wish you well, I hope you're safe tonight
             C   G    Dm
It's been a long day coming and long will it last
           C    G     Dm
When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass
    C  G  F
By loving you more

(verse)
Am                Dm   Am                         Dm
And who he would become, all the things he'd have done
Am            Dm            Am           Em
Would he have loved you and not let you down
Am               Dm     Am        Dm
And would he be stronger than his father
Am                      Em
Don't punish yourself, leave it well alone

(chorus)
       Am      G                    Dm
Dear Isobel, I hope you're well and what you've done is right
        Am                G                Dm
Oh it's been such hell, I wish you well, I hope you're safe tonight
             C    G    Dm
It's been a long day coming and long will it last
           C    G    Dm
When it's last day leaving, and I'm helping it pass
    C  G   F         C
By loving you more, oh
