Biography:
Ernest Dale Tubb (February 9, 1914 – September 6, 1984), nicknamed the Texas Troubadour, was an American singer and songwriter and one of the pioneers of country music. His biggest career hit song, "Walking the Floor Over You" (1941), marked the rise of the honky tonk style of music. In 1948, he was the first singer to record a hit version of "Blue Christmas", a song more commonly associated with Elvis Presley and his mid-1950s version. Another well-known Tubb hit was "Waltz Across Texas" (1965)

C G7
When the postman delivered a letter
C
It filled her dear heart full of joy
D7
But she didn't know till she read the inside
G7 C
It was the last one from her darling boy
G7
Dear Mom was the way that it started
C
I miss you so much it went on
D7
Mom I didn't know that I loved you so
G7 C
But I'll prove it when this war is won
G7
I'm writing this down in a trench Mom
C
Don't scold if it isn't so neat
D7
You know as you did when I was a kid
G7 C
And I'd come home with mud on my feet
G7
The captain just gave us our orders
C
And Mom we will carry them through
D7
I'll finish this letter the first chance I get
G7 C
But now I'll just say I love you
G7
Then the mother's old hands began to tremble
C
And she fought against tears in her eyes
D7
But they came unashamed for there was no name
G7 C
And she knew that her darling had died
G7
That night as she knelt by her bedside
C
She prayed Lord above hear my plea
D7
And protect all the sons that are fighting tonight
G7 C
And dear God keep America free
