Let Her Go
View chords used in this chart
Emaj7
You were her only girl
the most precious thing in her world
Amaj7
and I know it makes you cry
that you never got to say goodbye
Emaj7
you were just running out of time
To say what was on your mind
Amaj7
You never wanted her to leave
And mom I know it makes you grief
C#m7 G#m7
But why don't you celebrate the moments that you shared yeah
Amaj7
'Cuz now she's watching over you
It's true
Emaj7
And you know it too
[Refrão]
Amaj7
Just let her go...
Emaj7
If you can't take the pain
Of a broken heart
Amaj7
Just let her go...
I know it feels as though hope is gone
And it hurts to think of moving on
But she'd never want to see you sad
Even though I know this hurts so bad
Devoted a life to you
And helped raise the grandson too
And now I hope you realize
That I'll always be there by your side
But why don't we celebrate the moments that we shared yeah
'Cuz now she's watching over you
It's true
And you know it too
Chorus
C#m7 G#m7
You never knew how much she tried to fight it
C#m7 G#m7
And when you needed her around she'd be there
C#m7 G#m7
But you can reassure yourself that she's at ease
Amaj7
And that's why it's time for you
To...
Chorus
If you can't take the pain
Of a broken heart
Just let her go... (just let her go, let her go)
If you can't take the pain
Of a broken heart
Just let her go... (just let her go, let her)
If you can't take the pain
