[Verse1]
CLying on the mattress 'cos Emmy Fmaj7friend's crazy Gadd11sister took
my Cbed away Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
Sleeping Cshe looked like an actress, Emin Fmaj7theory and Gadd11in
practice, I said
C"There's got to be a better way" Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
She said "You Clight a thousand matches and Emyou Fmaj7finally set
Gadd11fire while you
Crun away Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
So Amwhy'd you go and Emdo it when you Fmaj7knew that you would Ggo
and I would stay C
I hit the Cwall in frustration - the conEmversFmaj7ation had been
cGadd11ircling for dCays Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
She said "Don't Ctake it out on him, for Emthe Fmaj7wall has always
Gadd11been Csupportive in the best [...Em]of Fmaj7ways" Gadd11
We're Claughing and crying like Em Fmaj7 mad men Gadd11dying in the
Csnow Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
For just one Amsecond it was Emfunny that Fmaj7she would have to Gstay
and I would go. C
[Chorus]
She said Fmaj7"Love, you Cknow I Glove you Cso; when you Fmaj7love
someone Cwell you've Ggot to let them Cknow."
And I said Fmaj7"Nothing's Cchanged I Glove you the sCame, but when
Fmaj7you love someone Csometimes you Ggotta let 'em goC"
[Verse2]
C She handed me a stone in Emthe Fmaj7perfect Gadd11shape of a heart
C Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
She said "I'm Cgonna take this home Emfor I Fmaj7know you'll
onGadd11ly lose it somewhere aftCer dark Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
In some Cfaceless hotel room Emwhere Fmaj7you seem to lose
Gadd11everything you own" C Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
She didn't Ammean it how it Emsounded, what she Fmaj7meant was she would
Gstay and I would go C
I said Fmaj7"Love, you Cknow I Glove you so. C When you Fmaj7love
someone C well you've Ggot to let them know C
She said Fmaj7"Nothing's Cchanged I Glove you the Csame, but when you
Fmaj7love someone Csometimes you Ggotta let them Cgo"
[Refrain]
C Sometimes Emyou Fmaj7tear it all apart Gadd11
C to see Emthe Fmaj7wood from the trees. Gadd11
C Sometimes Emyou Fmaj7break your own Gadd11
C Gadd11 Am
[Verse3]
(quietly - single plucking / strums)
I Cwalked her to the Emstation, Fmaj7hesitation in our Gadd11movements
and our tone C Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
CWords finally left after Emthey Fmaj7realized how Gadd11uncomfortable
they'd become C Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
See, what you Cwant and what you need, well Emthey Fmaj7seldomly
Gadd11succeed to grow C Em Fmaj7 Gadd11
We Amreluctantly Emagreed that when you Fmaj7love someone, you've Ggot
to let them go C
