Lyrics

Let it go,

let it roll right off your shoul der.

Don’t you know,

the hard est part is o ver.

and Let it (A)end,

let your clar i ty de fine you in the end.

We will on ly just re mem ber how it feels.

Our lives are made

in these small hours,

these lit tle won ders, these (E)twists and turns of (A)fate.

Time falls a way,

but these small hours,

these small hours

(E)still re main.

Let it slide,

let your trou bles fall be hind you, let it shine

’til you it all a round you.

and Let it (A)mind

if it’s me you need to turn to.

We’ll get by;

it’s the heart that real ly mat ters in the end.

Our lives are made

in these small hours,

these lit tle won ders, these (E)twists and turns of (A)fate.

Time falls a way,

but these small hours,

these small hours

(E)still re main.

Let it slide,

(E)still re main.

All of my re gret

will (E)wash a way some how,

but I can not for get

the way I feel right (A)now,

in these small hours,

these lit tle won ders, these (E)twists and turns of (D)fate, yeah, these twists and turns of (A)fate.

Time falls a way,

but these small hours,

these small hours

(E)still re main.

yeah,

oh, they still re main,

these lit tle won ders, oh, these twists and turns of (A)fate.

Time falls a way,

but these small hours,

these lit tle won ders (E7)still re main.
