[Intro] F  G  C  Am

[Primeira Parte]

             F
He's what I want

    C               Am  
But I'm not what he needs
          F                  G
He needs to wake up and look in the mirror
    C                  Am
And like just what he sees

[Segunda Parte]

        F
And it kills me
        G
That I have to leave
     C               Am
To watch him go get better
       F          G      
'Cause I'd set myself on fire
        C                   Am
If it meant he'd come back after

[Pré-Refrão]

        F     
Because I love him
G
I love him
       C                   Am
That's why I'm letting him go

F                  G
I love him and I want him
        C                Am
But we both need time to grow

[Refrão]

F                     G
And if the world was kind
C                 Am
I could make him stay
F                G     
It pains me to think of a girl
     C                 Am
Who gets to trace his veins
F
I love him
          G              C
But it's better off this way

 F   
We had the best time

           G 
And he was all mine
       C           Am
And I never wanna leave
             F
We'd stay up all night

              G
And when he drifts off
         C                  Am
I can't help but watch him sleep

            F       G    
Oh he's so beautiful
       C                Am
And I tell him all the time
         F                G
I never said words more true
       C                     Am
I'll stand by them untill I die, oh

F
I love him
G 
I love him

        C               Am
That's why I'm letting him go
F              G       
I love him and I want him
     C                     Am
But we both need time to grow
F                     G
And if the world was kind
C                 Am
I could make him stay
F                G 
It pains me to think of a girl
     C                 Am
Who gets to trace his veins
F
I love him
          G               F  G
But it's better off this way
C      Am     F     G      C Am
Oooh, mmhmm, mmhmm, hmmmm

F     
I love him
G
I love him

   C             Am
So I have to let him go
F              G
I love him and I want him
C                     Am
I only hope he finds his growth
F                     G
And if the world was kind
C               Am
He would wanna stay
F                  G          
And if there's a next one
C                            Am
I hope she can love him the same
F             G             C         Am
I don't know, doesn't feel better off this way
F    G            C
Ooh, I can only pray
Am
Ooh
