Intro: G   Bm   D   A

Verse 1:
  G                      Bm
Staring at the ceiling, tryna fight the feeling
  D                                  A
Deep inside your heart, you know it isn't what it was
   G                    Bm
Anxiety is growing like fog over the ocean
 D                                  A
Hopin', wishin', prayin' that it's gone when you get up

Pre-chorus:
G                   Bm
..You could try to wrestle with the mirror
D                    A                         G
..But the truth, it can't be any clearer than that
                        Bm
You've been fighting it off just like a fever
      D                        A
But there's no use holding it back

Chorus:
     G
Sometimes you need the rain
    Bm
To know you miss the sun
     D
Sometimes you need the pain
    A
To know it isn't love
     Gbm                G   Bm
Sometimes the one you hold....
                  D                     A
You gotta let 'em go, you gotta let 'em go

Post-chorus:
                  G  Bm  D  A
You gotta let 'em go,....go...

Verse 2:
       G                     Bm
This isn't what you wanted, knots inside your stomach
D                                A
Do you have to hurt 'em, so you don't hurt anymore?

Pre-chorus:
G                   Bm
..You could try to wrestle with the mirror
D                    A                         G
..But the truth, it can't be any clearer than that
                        Bm
You've been fighting it off just like a fever
      D                        A
But there's no use holding it back

Chorus:
     G
Sometimes you need the rain
    Bm
To know you miss the sun
     D
Sometimes you need the pain
    A
To know it isn't love
     Gbm                G   Bm
Sometimes the one you hold....
                  D                     A
You gotta let 'em go, you gotta let 'em go

Post-chorus:
                  G   Bm
You gotta let 'em go....
                  D   A
You gotta let 'em go....
                  G   Bm
You gotta let 'em go....
                  D   A
You gotta let 'em go....

Bridge:
      G             Bm                A           Gbm
Oh-oh,...when what hurts and what's right are the same
G          Bm            A         Gbm
..When it kills you to leave or to stay
G               Bm         A               Gbm      G  Bm  A
..When there's nothing to fix and nothing left to save,..hm-mm

You gotta let 'em go....
