The Art Of Letting Go Chords

Verse 1: A I guess it fits it’s raining Bm Even the sky is crying E7 A That every good thing has to end A You hold on to the moment Bm But it doesn’t hold on to you E7 A Turns out that it’s a fickle friend Pre-Chorus 1: D E A C#m What kind of cruelty did it take to shape the temporary state D E A Of all I’ve known and all I’ve loved? D E A C#m I’ve spent my life trying to bottle up a running river D E A And building houses in a flood
