 v1)

She sits alone by a lampo-ost

  Trying to find a thought that's escaped her mind

  She says there's the one I love the most

  his type's not far behind

  She never lets me in only tells me where she's been

  when she's had to much to drink

  I say that I don't care I just run my hands through her dark hair

  then I pray to God, "You gotta help me fly away" (and just)

Chorus

  let her cry if the tears fall down like rain

  let her sing If it eases all her pain

  let her go let her walk right out on me

  and if the sun comes up tomorrow,

  let her be, let her be

4 bars solo

Verse 2

This morning I woke up alone found a note standing by the phone

saying "maybe, maybe I'll be back someday"

I wanted to look for you

you walked in, I didn't know just what I should do

So, I sat back down, had a beer and felt sorry for myself

Solo

Verse 3

last night I tried to leave

cried so much I could not beleive

she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago

she went in the back to get high

I sat down on my couch and cried yelling

"Whoa Lord whoa, please help me. Won't you hold my hand"
