A C#m B

[Verse 1]
A         C#m                     B
 Everyone said, "It's time to let go"
                                        A
To throw away all of the cards that you owned
                C#m
The moments we framed
                   B
The words that you meant
                                               A
I'm sat with that stuff on the edge of our bed


[Pre-Chorus]
 C#m
Oh
           B                             C#m
I know the next part of healing's giving up these feelings
A  C#m
  Oh
           B
But I'm a mess 'cause I wanna keep 'em


[Chorus]
             A                       C#m
I still got all of your things in a shoebox
         B
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
     A                      E
I'm holding on to bring you back
    B
But no, it don't work like that
          A                       C#m
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
            B
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
    A                      E
No, I can't seem to follow through
          B                                 A
When it's all I got left, all I got left of you
C#m B                                 A C#m B
    All I got left, all I got left of you, all


[Verse 2]
A                C#m
 I know it don't help
               B
But can't help myself
 N.C
I take out the notes
                    A
And I read them out loud
                   C#m
As though you were here
           B
Sat on the stairs
                                     A
Planning that trip like you'd never left


[Pre-Chorus]
 C#m
Oh
           B                             C#m
I know the next part of healing's giving up these feelings
A  C#m
  Oh
           B
But I'm a mess 'cause I wanna keep 'em


[Chorus]
             A                       C#m
I still got all of your things in a shoebox
         B
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
     A                      E
I'm holding on to bring you back
    B
But no, it don't work like that
          A                       C#m
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
            B
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
    A                      E
No, I can't seem to follow through
           B
When it's all I got left, all I got left


[Bridge]
    F#m                     C#m
I'm holding on to bring you back
    E                      B
But no, it don't work like that
    F#m                    C#m
No, I can't seem to follow through
          E                 B
When it's all I got left of you
    F#m                     C#m
I'm holding on to bring you back
    E                      B
But no, it don't work like that
    F#m                    C#m
No, I can't seem to follow through
E      B
Oh-oh, oh


[Chorus]
             A                       C#m
I still got all of your things in a shoebox
         B
Under my bed that I said that I'd throw out
     A                      E
I'm holding on to bring you back
    B
But no, it don't work like that
          A                       C#m
Still got all of your things in a shoebox
            B
Need to let go, but I won't 'cause you're gone now
    A                      E
No, I can't seem to follow through
          B                                 A C#m
When it's all I got left, all I got left of you (I'm holding on to bring you back)
B               B                 A C#m                                   B
All I got left, all I got left of you, (But no, it don't work like that) oh
