                                  Em
Sweetie Little Jean where did you go?

                                    C
Everyone's been searching high and low

                           Am
And your mother's worried sick

                        C
Dearest daddy lost his grip
While the whole world's watching
Am                        C
Candlelight vigils being held in silence

Am             Em
On the channel four

                          Em
And they've knocked every door

                           C
Every place you've been before
[Pre-Chorus]
C         Am            Em
How long will we let it go?

C       Am                 Em
I think we should just let go
[Chorus]
C              Am
I, I want you back (back)

          Em
Let's get back

G                               C
Lay my weary head against your bones

Am                                      C
Where all my troubles will be dead and gone
[Post-Chorus]
C         Am            Em
How long will we let it go?

C       Am                Em
I think we should just let go
B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5 [Verse 2]
                              Em
Has melancholy taken you for good?

                                      C
You know that I would save you if I could

                                Am
Watched your laughter turn to tears

                           C
Then you vanished in thin air

                              Am            C
Well we pinned your missing persons picture up

           Am           Em
On every mother-loving post

                        Em
How's it feel to be a ghost?

                           C
You're the one I love the most
[Chorus]
C              Am
I, I want you back

          Em
Let's get back

G            Am     Em         C
Lay my weary head against your breast

Am                                    C
Where all my troubles will be laid to rest
[Bridge]
X    C                       Am
I pushed and I pulled 'til I pushed you aside

     C                       Am
Now all that is left are the tears that you cried

     C
I'm sorry love

               Am
For all of the damage done

   Em
My only hope

   G
is someday to be back beside you
[Chorus]
C              Am
I, I want you back

          Em
Let's get back

G                              C
Lay my weary head against your bones

      Am                                 C
Where all our troubles will be dead and gone

C       Am             Em
How long will we let it go?

C       Am                 Em
I think we should just let go
