[Intro]
| Em | Em | C | C |
 
[Verse 1]
Em
Are you feeling weak?
C
Nobody ever taught you how to take a punch
C
You just took one in the guts
Em
Are you gonna go and get yourself all balled up?
C
Are you staying in tonight?
Am
Depressed to the nines (Hey)
Em
And you're feeling like it's over and you've got it all summed up
C
How will we identify
Am E5 C5
With no one there by your side?
 
[Chorus]
D E5 D5
Now with so many of them out there
C Am E5 C5
So many versions of you
D Am
Do they all get a piece of me
G/B C E5 C5
From the memories you let go?
 
[Post-Chorus]
Em
I wish that you could hear me
C
I'm finished here without you now
C
You said that you were leaving
C
But never said how
 
[Verse 2]
Em
Well, you made it and you got your wounds all dolled up
C
In the pity left in piles
C
But that was a while ago
Am
Now it's mostly blown down the road (Hey)
Em
Move along once we are all used up
C
And there's no one left to blame, but then you know
Am E5 C5
Most folks don't appreciate that anyway
 
[Chorus]
D E5 D5
Now with so many of them out there
C Am E5 C5
So many versions of you
D Am
Do they all get a piece of me
G/B C E5 C5
From the memories you let go?
D E5 D5
If you still need some motivation
C Am E5 C5
Well, look I'm letting go too
D Am
And I'm so much lighter now
G/B C
I'm no longer holding you
 
[Bridge]
G
You traded in your leather for a denim and a polaroid
G
Put it up for sale in the mail for your brand new boy
Em
I couldn't tell you just how long it's been
Em
I can only say how fully disappointed I am (Hey)
G
You traded in your leather for a denim and a polaroid (I dropped you a line)
G
Put it up for sale in the mail for your brand new boy (But you burned right through as
you began to climb)
Em
I couldn't tell you just how long it's been (I left you a note)
Em
I can only say how fully disappointed I am (Saw it fade in the sun on the street with
our hope)
 
[Chorus]
D E5 D5
Now with so many of them out there
C Am E5 C5
So many versions of you
D Am
Do they all get a piece of me
G/B C E5 C5
From the memories you let go?
D E5 D5
If you still need some motivation
C Am E5 C5
Well, look I'm letting go too
D Am
And I'm so much lighter now
G/B C Am G/B C
I'm no longer holding you
