The Strings That Tie You Down

    C                F            
You're so close to tellin' me 
     C
you're leaving
C                                  
Packin' up your things and leavin' 
G
town
C                F            
If you can walk away the rest is 
    C
easy
C                  G             
Once you cut the strings that tie
      C
 you down


Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
F                                 
Just look me in the eye and say 
    C
it's over
C                            
Just tell me you don't want me 
   G
around
F                             
Once you say goodbye, it's gone 
    C
forever
C                  G             
Once you cut the strings that tie
      C
 you down


[Verse 2]
    C                F        
There's no way I can picture me 
    C
without you
C                                 
I still think of you in your 
   G
wedding gown
      C               F           
If I have to give you up, may God 
     C
be with you
C                  G             
Once you cut the strings that tie
      C
 you down
