Tom: G

G Am7 G Am7

[VERSE I]
G                         Am7
   You want to say you’re lonely
G                         Am7
   That hope is not your friend
G                      Am7
   To that I would say only
G                               Am7
   If you’re sure that it’s the end
G                      Am7
   All the leaves have fallen
G                      Am7
   The branches they are bare
G                          Am7
   But spring is round the corner
G                                Am7
Soon you’ll have flowers in your hair

[Chorus]
D                       Am7
   We just gotta let it go
D                              Am7
   We gotta let our old selves go
C
   We gotta let em
D                  G   Am7 G Am7
   We gotta let em go

[VERSE II]
G                    Am7
   If I wrote you a story
G                         Am7
   You’d want twists and turns
G               Am7
   So go on and get yourself
G                   Am7
   The story you deserve
G                     Am7
   And in the darkest hour
G                     Am7
   Just beneath your grief
G                    Am7
   There is a hidden power
G                    Am7
   To heal your unbelief

[Chorus]
D                  Am7
   We gotta let it go
D                             Am7
   We gotta let our old lives go
C
   We gotta let it
D
   We gotta let em

[Bridge]
G            Am7
Go away from what we know
G        Am7
As above so below
  G               Am7
I built a wall to knock it down
G             Am7
I got lost so I’d get found

G Am7 G Am7

[VERSE III]
G                      Am7
   These gray hairs at my temples
G                      Am7
   They tell me where I’ve been
G                         Am7
   I don’t know where I’m going
G                          Am7
   I just hope they let me in

[Chorus]
D                  Am7
   We gotta let it go
D                  Am7
   We gotta let it go
C
   We gotta let it
D                   G   Am7 G Am7 G
   We gotta let it go
