Letting Go
View chords used in this chart
Capo 2
A F#m
Lonely sound of distant thunder stirs my restless sleep
D E
And the dream that i was lost in slips away
A F#m
Of a young son and his mama, so innocent back then
D E
Would she even recognize her boy today
[Refrão] F#m E
Cause I have fought into the darkness
D E
And I've spilled blood, with these 2 hands
A F#m
And in my heart I wish I could believe
D E A E
Who I was, is who I am
I've crossed mountains, hills, and valleys
From sea to shining sea
Barren sands to blinding snow
I held my brother as he laid dieing
Beside me in some field
Said a prayer, and let him go
Chorus
Bridge:
A D
I'm letting go (i'm letting go)
A E
Letting go (i'm letting go)
A D
Well i'm letting go (i'm letting go)
A E
Letting go (i'm letting go)
Now with all my trials behind me
I'm so blessed to cast my eyes
On my family and my home
And with faith i faced my demons
When God was on our side
All that's left, is letting go
Bridge
