Standard (EADGBE)

 I put the locket you gave me in a shoe box

 With all my favorite high school pictures in a ziplock

 So when I think about myself and all that I'm not

 Thanks for the extra cash

 Please take good care of dad

 I promise you I'll call along the way

Mama, don't you cry

 I'm movin' on but know this ain't goodbye

 We might be miles apart, I'll carry you in my heart

 I'll send you kisses on the phone but mama

 I'm leaving home

 In only four months I'll be comin' home for Christmas

 I bet that all the time will fly, you know how it does

 Maybe I'll go and find a nice guy and fall in love

 I'll do my best to make you proud

 Keep my room safe for now

 Just in case these big dreams don't work out

We knew this day would come

 And as bad as you wanna hold on

We both know it's time to let go

(To let go)
