Patty Griffin - Let Him Fly
CAPO: 2nd Fret
INTRO: C majorC FF
C majorC
Ain't no talking to this man
Ain't no pretty other side
FF
Ain't no way to understand
The stupid words of pride
G+G
It would take an acrobat
FF G+G
And I already tried all that
C majorC FF C majorC
I'm gonna let him fly
Things can move at such a pace
The second hand just waved goodbye
FF
You know the light has left his face
But you can't recall just where or why
G+G
So there was really nothing to it
FF G+G
I just went and cut right through it
C majorC FF C majorC
I said I'm gonna let him fly, ooh, yeah, yeah
FF G+G
There's no mercy in a live wire
A minorAm
No rest at all in freedom
FF DmDm Am7Am7
Of the choices we are given, it's no choice at all
FF G+G
Oh huh, the proof is in the fire
C majorC A minorAm G+G E minorEm DmDm
You touch before it moves away___, yeah
G+G
But you must always know how long to stay and when to go
C majorC
And there ain't no talking to this man
He's been trying to tell me so
FF
It took awhile to understand
A minorAm
The beauty of just letting go
FF
'Cause it would take an acrobat
DmDm G+G
I already tried all that
C majorC FF C majorC
I'm gonna let him fly
FF C majorC FF C majorC
I'm gonna let him fly, fly, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
FF C majorC FF C majorC
I'm gonna let him fly, fly, oh oh
FF C majorC
