Lyrics

From walk ing home and talk ing loads

to see ing shows in eve ning clothes with you.

From ner vous touch and get ting drunk

to stay ing up and wak ing up with you.

But now we’re (Bbm)sleep ing at the edge hold ing some thing we don’t need

all this de (Bbm)lu sion in our heads is gon na bring us to our knees.

So come on let it (Gb)go

just let it (Bbm)be,

why don’t you be (Ebm7)you

and I’ll be me.

Ev ’ry thing that’s (Gb)broke

leave it to the (Bbm)breeze,

why don’t you be (Ebm7)you

and I’ll be me,

and I’ll be me.

From throw ing clothes a cross the floor

to teeth and claws and slam ming doors at you.

If this is all we’re liv ing for

why are we (Db)do ing it, do ing it (Gb)do ing it an y more?

I used to (Bbm)re cog nise my self, it’s fun ny how re flect ions change

when we’re be (Bbm)com ing some thing else, I think it’s time to walk a (G)way.

So come on let it Try’n a fit your hand in side of mine when we know it just don’t be long.

There’s no force on earth could make it feel right, no,

whoa.

Try’n a push this prob lem up the hill when it’s just to heav y to hold.

Think now’s the time to let it slide.

So come on let it (Gb)go

just let it (Bbm)be,

why don’t you be (Ebm7)you

and I’ll be me.

Ev ’ry thing that’s (Gb)broke

leave it to the (Bbm)breeze,

let the ash es (Ebm7)fall

for get a bout (Fm)me.

Come on let it (Gb)go

just let it (Bbm)be,

why don’t you be (Ebm7)you

and I’ll be me,

and I’ll be me.
