Sending the cover letter via e-mail

So there's this job I a applying to, inside a bank, and I got the email to email my resume' to them to apply for a job .

My problem is I can not write a cover letter to save my life. I can probably write one but it looks funny since i am emailing it along with my resume, wouldn't it?

Anyone got any ideas on email etiquette on how I can word a cover letter being send though email?

Thanks

You don't have to SEND it with your email, as attached dosument. Instead, you should write it in the corpus of the e-mail. Make the e-mail the cover letter itself and attach the resume. Quite easy.
About the "perfect cover letter", there are some good articles on this site about it, just browse around.

Hello, Glory

Becky is right, make the cover letter the body of the e-mail. But the problem is not necessarily how you send it (even if it is important), the problem is what the cover letter contains, right? In this regard, I will surely have a look over it, if you post it in here.

Best of luck!
