C                       Dm   G
 The love we had was so nice
                    C
I feel so terribly sorry
                       Dm    G
And now I'm paying the price
                      C
I'm just so terribly sorry
                       Dm   G
Why does it hurt me so bad
                      C       Am
I only learn when I'm burning
                       Dm   G
And now it's making me sad
                           C
'Cause I know you're not returning so


[Chorus]
              G
Why don't you go
              Am
Why don't you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life
             G
I'll let you go
             Am
I'll let you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life


[Verse 2]
C                     Dm   G
 Look how far we have come
                       C
It all seems so unnecessary
                          Dm   G
Before the pain there was fun
                         C
And there was nothing to worry
                             Dm    G
Some things are hard to understand
                       C       Am
The reasons for your departure
                       Dm   G
With no destination no plan
                                 C
But I know if you stayed it'd be harder, all right now:


[Chorus]
              G
Why don't you go
              Am
Why don't you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life
             G
I'll let you go
             Am
I'll let you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life


[Bridge]
Am
Dogs bark louder
F
Trees grow stronger
C                     G
When there's peace at mind, oh
    Am           F              G
The ocean waters will be calmer now


[Instrumental]
Dm G C Am 
Dm G C Am


[Verse 3]                             
C                         Dm  G
Just look how far we have come
                   C    Am
I feel so terribly sorry
                       Dm  G
And I put it down on a song
                       C
So I can erase the memories, everybody now:


[Chorus]
              G
Why don't you go
              Am
Why don't you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life
             G
I'll let you go
             Am
I'll let you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life

              G
Why don't you go
              Am
Why don't you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life
             G
I'll let you go
             Am
I'll let you go
       F       G         C
If you have to live your life

[Otro]
    Am           F              G   C
The ocean waters will be calmer now
