D                Em
Your words cut sharper than knives
Bm
I thought we'd be sharing some time
D               Em                Bm
You wanted too much and I wonder why?

D                   Em
Remember back then wasn't that nice
Bm
But something happened in between lines
D              Em                 Bm
You lost your faith and I wonder why

Chorus:
        G                     D
So I'm letting you know, I'm letting you go
     A                        D/F#
I'm letting you know that I'm letting you go
          G              D
And I'll say, it wasn't easy for me
            A               D/F#
Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release
        G                     A
So I'm letting you know, I'm letting you go
     A                         D/F#
I'm letting you know that I'm letting you go

Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release

We climbed the mountain and as we looked down
You pushed me off the cliff and stole the crown
And as I fell down further, I wondered why

Remember back then, wasn't that nice?
But somethin' happened in between lines
You lost your faith and I wonder why

Chorus:
So I'm lettin' you know, I'm lettin' you go
I'm lettin' you know that I'm lettin' you go
And I'll say, it wasn't easy for me
Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release
So I'm lettin' you know, I'm lettin' you go
I'm lettin' you know that I'm lettin' you go
And I'll say, it wasn't easy for me
Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release

G                  Bm
I keep making the same mistake
D                       F#m7
Waiting for you to come back some day
G                  Bm
I keep making the same mistake
D                       Fm#7
Waiting for you to come back some day
G                  Bm
I keep making the same mistake
D                       Fm#7
Waiting for you to come back

Chorus:
So I'm lettin' you know, I'm lettin' you go
I'm lettin' you know that I'm lettin' you go
And I'll say, it wasn't easy for me
Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release
So I'm lettin' you know, I'm lettin' you go
I'm lettin' you know that I'm lettin' you go
And I'll say, it wasn't easy for me
Yeah, I'll say, it's time I learned to release
