Intro:
(1/2 of chorus) : GCG D MajorD C majorC G+G D MajorD G+G

Chorus:
    G+G       C majorC  G+G
Let it go my love my truest,
    D/ED/E
Let it sail on silver wings
        C majorC              G+G
Life’s a twinkling that’s for certain,
       D MajorD
But it’s such a fine thing
        G+G       C majorC G+G
There’s a gathering of spirits
        D MajorD
There’s a festival of friends
         C majorC              G+G
And we’ll take up where we left off
         D MajorD      G+G
When we all meet again.

Verse 1:
         C majorC      G+G
I can’t explain it. I couldn’t if I tried
        C majorC           G+G
How the only things we carry
       D MajorD
Are the things we hold inside
                  C majorC
Like a day in out the open,
       G+G
like the love we won't forget
         C majorC            G+G
Like the laughter that we started
     D MajorD
And hasn’t died down yet


Chorus:
    G+G       C majorC  G+G
Let it go my love my truest,
    D/ED/E
Let it sail on silver wings
        C majorC              G+G
Life’s a twinkling that’s for certain,
       D MajorD
But it’s such a fine thing
        G+G       C majorC G+G
There’s a gathering of spirits
        D MajorD
There’s a festival of friends
         C majorC              G+G
And we’ll take up where we left off
         D MajorD      G+G
When we all meet again.

Verse 1:
            C majorC          G+G
Oh yah, now didn’t we, and don’t we make it shine
         C majorC             G+G
Aren’t we standing in the centre of
D MajorD
Something rare and fine
              C majorC
Some glow like embers
   G+G
or light thru coloured glass
      C majorC         G+G
Some give it all in one great flame
          D MajorD
Throwing kisses as they pass


Chorus:
    G+G       C majorC  G+G
Let it go my love my truest,
    D/ED/E
Let it sail on silver wings
        C majorC              G+G
Life’s a twinkling that’s for certain,
       D MajorD
But it’s such a fine thing
        G+G       C majorC G+G
There’s a gathering of spirits
        D MajorD
There’s a festival of friends
         C majorC              G+G
And we’ll take up where we left off
         D MajorD      G+G
When we all meet again.

Verse 3:
           C majorC             G+G
Just east of Eden, But there’s heaven in our midst
          C majorC        G+G
And we’re never really all that far
      D MajorD
From those we love and miss
              C majorC
Wade out in the water
        G+G
There’s a glory all around
     C majorC               G+G
The wisest say there’s a thousand ways
    D MajorD
To kneel and kiss the ground


Chorus:
    G+G       C majorC  G+G
Let it go my love my truest,
    D/ED/E
Let it sail on silver wings
        C majorC              G+G
Life’s a twinkling that’s for certain,
       D MajorD
But it’s such a fine thing
        G+G       C majorC G+G
There’s a gathering of spirits
        D MajorD
There’s a festival of friends
         C majorC              G+G
And we’ll take up where we left off
         D MajorD      G+G
When we all meet again.
