[Verse]
Em C G D
Once upon a time I could take anything, anything.
Em C D
Always stepped in time, regardless of the beat
Em C
I moved my feet, I carried weight
G D
When I could not do I Faked
Em C
I dug seeking treasure
D C C/B Am G
Just to wake up in an early grave
D
So I stopped right there and said
[Chorus]
G D
Go on alone, 'cause I won't follow.
Em C
This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
G D
Out with the old dreams I've borrowed
Em C
The path I carve from here on out will be my own
C D
The path will be my own
[Bridge]

[Verse]
Em C
This is the part where the needle skips
G D
And the chorus plays like a sink that drips
Em C D
A syllable repeating, like a warning we aren't heeding
Em C
Until all of a sudden we noticed it
G D
When the wheels brace and the tires grip
Em C
A map we've been misreading
D
A defeat we're not conceding
C C/B Am G
Until now
D
There must be some other way out
[Chorus]
G D
Go on alone, 'cause I won't follow.
Em C
This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
G D
Out with the old dreams I've borrowed
Em C
The path I carve from here on out will be my own
G D
A path to take me home

Em
The wind died
C
The whole world ceased to move
G
Now so quiet
Am
Her beating heart became a boom
Em
We locked eyes
C
For just a moment or two
G
She asked why
Am
I said "I don't know why"
Em
I just know
C
The wind died
G Am
The whole world ceased to move
Em C
Now so quiet
G Am
Her beating heart became a boom
Em C
We locked eyes
G Am
For just a moment or two
Em C
She asked why
G Am
I said "I don't know why"
Bm C
I just know
D
I just know
[Chorus + outro]
G D
Go on alone, 'cause I won't follow
Em C
This isn't giving up, no this is letting go
G D
I'll make the most of all this sorrow
Em C
I tried to brave this discontent but now I'm through
G D Em C
I'm letting go of you - woah - woah - woah
G D
This is letting go - woah
Em C
This is letting go
Em C G Am
Once upon a time I could take anything, anything
