Verse 1:
F              Dm7                C
Close the book before it turns to tragedy
Bb                  Dm7               C
Tear the tree house down, give up the fantasy
Bb                                  F
Nothin' to regret, since the day we met
C                     Dm             Bb
Glad we took a chance makin' our own world
Dm7          F                 C
   Perfectly imperfect like it had to be
 
Pre-Chorus:
                 Bb
Who thought that one first kiss
                Dm
Would turn into two heartbreaks?
                F
'Cause, since we were young, I swore
          C
I'd never walk away
 
Chorus:
F                                          C
I love you so much that I've gotta let you go
            Dm            C
It couldn't last forever
      Bb
And I hope you find better
F                                         C
I can't forget us, can't pretend we ain't broken
       Dm             C
It was good together
       Bb                      Bbsus2
But now I've gotta let you go

F                  Dm               C
I'll always be in love with who you used to be
Am     Bb            F                   C
  I'll save the photographs and keep the memories
    F              Bb                        F
The ribbon in your hair, the secrets that we shared
                       C            A         Dm   Dm7
The way that you would stare at me across the room
   Bb               F                    C
We laughed until we cried, it feels like yesterday

I'd never walk away

Bridge:
    Gm
I'm pickin' up pieces left and right
Dm                               C
  Now that our hearts are both untied
F                C
It'll take time, it'll take time
Gm
No one can say we didn't try
Dm                              C
I'll think of these days all my life
F                C
It'll take time, it'll take time

It couldn't last forever

And I hope you find better, yeah

It was good together
