[Intro] Abadd9 Dbadd9/Ab Db/Eb Ab [Verse 1]
                   Ab                        Db/Ab
It's three in the morning you're nowhere in sight,

                Db/Eb                       Ab
And all that I wanted was to be with you tonight.

                       Ab                 Db/Ab
I've watched love get closer and then fade away,

                Db/Eb                                    Ab
I've seen you believe in me, I've seen you're trying to stay.
[Chorus]
     Ab/C         Dbmaj7   Eb/Db        Cm7    Fm7
But what good is holding on     when you know,

        Bbm7               Eb       Ebm7  Ab
That all you can think about is letting go.

                Dbmaj7      Eb/Db         Cm7      Fm7
They say if you love someone    then set them free,

                Bbm        Ab/C
If they'll come back again then in the end,

Db                 Db/Eb
  It was meant to be.
[Verse 2]
                   Ab
I thought we were lovers,

                 Db/Ab
I thought we were friends.

              Db/Eb                         Ab
I guess when reality steps in the dreaming ends.

                 Ab    Ab/C
We live for the future,

                   Db
We learn from the past.

               Db/Eb                              Ab  Ab/C
No matter how hard we try some good things never last.
[Instrumental] Dbmaj7 Eb/Db Cm7 Fm7 [Bridge]
   Bbm7               Eb       Ebm7 Ab7
All you can think about is letting go.

                Dbmaj7
Be true to yourself my love,

       Eb/Db                     Cm7 Fm7
That's all i ever wanted you to be.

       Bbm7
Just don't forget to smile,

Ab              Gb    Db/Eb
When you think of me.
[Verse 3]
                      Ab
I've reached for the star,

                    Db/Ab
I have got them in sight.

                     Db/Eb
There's someone who really needs me,

                  Ab
Out there in the night.

                 Ab    Ab/C
We live for the future,

         Db
We will learn from the past.

               Db/Eb
No matter how hard we try,

                        Ab Ab/C Db Eb Ab
Some good things never last.
