As recorded by Joe Cocker (From the 1989 Album ONE NIGHT OF SIN) [Intro] G C Em C G [Verse 1]
        G
You can look away

        C
But you can't disguise

    Em                   C
The light that shines so brightly

        G
Is gone from your eyes

          G
It wasn't my mistake

             C
It's nothing you did wrong

    Em                  C
Sometimes learning to surrender

       D
Is the same as being strong
[Chorus]
G
Letting go

D
Letting go

    C               G
The hardest part is knowing

          D
That I'll miss you so

            Em
I'd like to wish you well

          C              G
Oh but it hurts you know

    Em                       C
Sometimes doing what is right

      D
Means letting go

C
Yeah
[Verse 2]
      G
As we walk away

           C
Leaving it all behind

  Em              C
I hope we will be satisfied

     G
With what we'll find

G
And if it's not all you want

            C
I hope it's good enough

   Em
To make it worth

    C
The precious things

      D
We're giving up
[Chorus]
G
Letting go

D
Letting go

    C               G
The hardest part is knowing

          D
That I'll miss you so

            Em
I'd like to wish you well

           C              G
Hey but it hurts you know

    Em                       C
Sometimes doing what is right

      G
Means letting go
[Bridge]
D
Sometimes late at night

        C                    G
I can't believe the things I hear

   D
An angel comes to me

        C          D
And whispers in my ears
[Verse 3]
                 G
Saying there's a time to read

    C
And a time of the soul

  Em               C
A time for holding on

      D
And a time

D
Just for
[Chorus]
G
Letting go

D
Letting go

    C
The hardest part is knowing

          D
That I'll miss you so

            Em
I'd like to wish you well

            C              G
Girl but it hurts you know

    Em                  C
Sometimes doing what is right

      D
Means letting go
[Guitar Solo] G D C D [Outro]
            Em
I'd like to wish you well

          C              G
Oh but it hurts you know

    Em                  C
Sometimes doing what is right

      D
Means letting go

C
Oh
