🎸 Intro:

Fmaj7Fmaj7  C majorC  A minorAm  G+G


🎸 Verse 1:
         Fmaj7Fmaj7
I always found it funny
     C majorC
That your favorite part of a movie
  A minorAm                G+G
Was trying to guess the end before I could
           Fmaj7Fmaj7
I should have seen it coming
   C majorC
But I got so lost in the story
    A minorAm           G+G
It was over long before I understood

🎸 Pre-Chorus:
  Fmaj7Fmaj7            A minorAm
And I can't stop your storm from rollin' in

And wrecking things
  C majorC           G+G
But shelter me until it's through
  Fmaj7Fmaj7           A minorAm
And all this time you've had a gentle way of holding me
  C majorC                  G+G
So could you please release me that way too?


🎸 Chorus:
      Fmaj7Fmaj7
'Cause it's okay to say goodbye
      C majorC
Some things live, but all things die
       A minorAm                  G+G
And I can let go of all of the things I hoped we'd be
      Fmaj7Fmaj7
And I don't need the reasons why
        C majorC
'Cause we both know how hard wе tried
     A minorAm                   G+G
If coming apart and breaking my heart is what you need
         Fmaj7Fmaj7   C majorC       A minorAm   G+G
Brеak it carefully,     break it carefully

🎸 Verse 2:
             Fmaj7Fmaj7
Well don't you think it's funny?
     C majorC
That I'm asking you for your mercy
       A minorAm            G+G
After all the nights you asked me for a dance
         Fmaj7Fmaj7
I guess I'm kinda lucky
    E minorEm
That we got so close to the real thing
    A minorAm           G+G
When so many never even get the chance


🎸 Pre-Chorus:
  Fmaj7Fmaj7            A minorAm
And I can't stop your storm from rollin' in

And wrecking things
  C majorC           G+G
But shelter me until it's through
  Fmaj7Fmaj7           A minorAm
And all this time you've had a gentle way of holding me
  C majorC                  G+G
So could you please release me that way too?

And I can let go of all of the things I hoped we'd be

And I don't need the reasons why
        C majorC
'Cause we both know how hard wе tried
     A minorAm                   G+G
If coming apart and breaking my heart is what you need

Brеak it carefully


🎸 Bridge:
       Fmaj7Fmaj7
I could leave all this behind me

I could leave all this behind me
