INTRO: D G A  (2x)

  D              G
You told me yourself you were a writer
                    A
You followed every line and theme right through
    D           G
I never suspected I was a one-nighter
     A
But there was this line, I'm gonna keep it for you

CHORUS:
         D
'Cause you let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
            A
And you call yourself a writer
      D
You let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
           A
I'm gonna keep it for you


D                  G
Oh, some people think you're quite amazing
                  A
They heard you do your songs on radio
       D               G
But somewhere in that sweet there's bitter tasting
      A
'Cause down deep inside, you know that somebody knows


CHORUS:
      D
You let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
            A
And you call yourself a writer
      D
You let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
           A
I'm gonna keep it for you


     D
I'm gonna play it out loud

I'm gonna do it one more time
     G
I'm gonna do it my show
      A
I want the world to know


    D
Oh, it just takes one night to make a reputation
    G           A
Oh, it just takes one lie to break a heart
    D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing
        G
But you let me go
      D
I want the world to know, you let it go


INSTRUMENTAL: G  A D  G  A


  D                   G
So, let me pose this question while you're posing
                 A
Let me wonder why, that's what I do
     D                G
I saw you open your eyes while mine were closing
    A
Did you take it all down from your point of view


CHORUS:
         D
Or did you let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
            A
And you call yourself a writer
      D
You let it go
                 G
You let that line go, you let it go
           A
I'm gonna keep it for you


     D
I'm gonna play it out loud

I'm gonna do it one more time
     G        A
I'm gonna do it my show

I want the world to know


    D
That it just takes one night to make a reputation
  G           A
It just takes one lie to break a heart
    D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing
      G
You let me go
        D
