F# A#m G#m C#
F# A#m G#

C#               F#                 A#m G#m
From walking home and talking loads,
C#              F#
To seeing shows
                            A#m G#m
In evening clothes with you,
C#                F#                  A#m G#m
From nervous touch and getting drunk,
C#           F#
To staying up
                       A#m G#
And waking up with you.

              A#m                    C#
And now we’re sleeping near the edge,
                           A#    F#
Holding something we don’t need,
           A#m                 C#
All this delusion in our heads
                         A#m
Is gonna bring us to our knees.

Chorus:
                       F#    C#
     So come on let it go,
                 A#m  G#
     Just let it be,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?

                       F#     C#
     Everything that’s broke,
                       A#m  G#
     Leave it to the breeze,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?
                 C#
     And I’ll be me.

F# A#m G#m C#
F# A#m G#

C#                   F#                A#m G#m
From throwing clothes across the floor
C#                F#                      A#m G#
To teeth and claws and slamming doors at you
C#            F#               A#m G#m
If this is all we're living for
            C#
Why are we doing it, doing it,
 F#             A#m G#
Doing it anymore?

           A#m             C#
I used to recognize myself
                             A#     F#
It's funny how reflections change
           A#m                     C#
When we're becoming something else
                            Gm
I think it's time to walk away

Chorus:
                       F#    C#
     So come on let it go,
                 A#m  G#
     Just let it be,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?

                       F#     C#
     Everything that’s broke,
                       A#m  G#
     Leave it to the breeze,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?
                 C#
     And I’ll be me.

F# A#m G#m C#
F# A#m G#

 D#m                             C#
   Tryna fit your hand inside of mine,
   When we know it just don’t belong,
 G#
   There’s no force on earth
                     A#m           D#m
   Can make it feel right, no, oh, oh.

 D#m                              C#
   Tryna push this problem up the hill,
   When it’s just too heavy to hold,
 G#                               A#m
   Think now’s the time to let it slide.

Chorus:
                       F#    C#
     So come on let it go,
                 A#m  G#
     Just let it be,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?

                        F#     C#
     Everything that’s broke,
                      A#m  G#
     Leave it to the breeze,
                   D#m     C#
     Let the ashes fall,
                  G#
     Forget about me.

                    F#    C#
     Come on let it go,
                 A#m  G#
     Just let it be,
                      D#m     C#
     Why don’t you be you
                 G#
     And I’ll be me?
                 C#
     And I’ll be me.
