Capo 5th fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Every shred of hope collides in your heart
with the fear of losing what you've just given up
As the moments pass you pray to survive
All these lonely minutes that once kept you alive
, , , x2
Try to change the expression that's worn out your face
As you lose the momentum of your past living ways
Every song is a channel for the memories to keep
Floating in your head as you're left asking
Why did I choose to let it all go
was it the fear of needing
or the doubts I let show
I never gave up fighting
I never said goodbye
, , , x2
So why? Why did we let go?
Every day is a new breath, but the battle's still on
Trying hard to elude them by keeping my head strong
Still I feel the exhaustion of wanting your kiss
As I'm left here asking the same dumb question
Why did I choose to let it all go
was it the fear of needing
or the doubts I let show
I never gave up fighting
I never said goodbye
So why? Why did we let go?
You never showed that you were scared of losing me
And you didn't fight to make me stay in your arms.
So I'm left asking.....
Why did I choose to let it all go
Was it the fear of needing
or the doubts I let show
I never gave up fighting
I never said goodbye
So why? Why did we let go?
Yeah, Yeah, da da da da da, yeah
Why did we let go?
(one strum for these last lines)
I never gave up fighting,
I never said goodbye
So why? Why did we let go?
