Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
Gm                              F
Between the seams that line your living room
Gm             C
A vine of ivy's pushing her way through
Gm              F
And as she creeps along, she sinks her roots
Gm                     C
Into the cracks, to pull 'em back until the structure's coming loose

Gm             F
And the way the shadows on the wall are cast
Gm           C
Look like a twisted apparition from the past
Gm            F
And all the memories come flooding fast
Gm                  Dm         F
A wilderness you kinda miss, but were taught you ought to cut it back

Pre-Chorus:
Bb    Dm
So you shut it out
   Gm
You shout it down
F
Until you're all white-knuckled
Bb      Dm     Gm      F
You got a lot to learn, if you'd settle down

Chorus:
F
Let be what is, let be what isn't
Bb           Gm     Dm
It's a natural world in which we're living
F
And if you let it alone, it will surely grow
Bb           Gm      Dm
Just leave it alone, child, and let it go

 (Bb F G F Bb C Dm)

Verse 2:
 Gm              F
And when all your ziggurats have crumbled down
 Gm               Cm      Gm
And every stone is thrown like seeds across the ground
           Dm
A new Arcadia will come around
 Gm                    F
And multiply until the binds of death have been unwound

Pre-Chorus:
  Bb     C
So don't you shut it out
 Gm
Don't you shout it down
       F
And get your feathers ruffled
 Bb     C        Gm
You got a lot to learn, if you'd just settle down
       F      Bb
And let the river run its course

Bridge:
     C            Gm
'Cause see, the ground all around
   F      Bb
It was always holy
      Cm        Gm
Leave the ruins where they fall

Leave them all
 C          F
And let the wild take over

Chorus:
F
Let be what is, let be what isn't
Bb           Gm     Dm
It's a natural world in which we're living
F
And if you let it alone, it will surely grow
Bb           Gm     Dm
Just leave it alone, child, and let it go
         C        Bb
Let be what is, let be what isn't
             F
It's a natural world in which we're living
      Dm           C   F
And if you let it alone, it will surely grow
 Bb              Gm
Just leave it alone, child, and let it go

(outro: F Bb F)
