    D                           G
You told me yourself you were a writer

                                        A
You followed every line and theme right through

        D                     G
I never suspected I was a one-nighter

          A
But there was this line, I'm gonna keep it for you
CHORUS:
                  D
'Cause you let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                        A
And you call yourself a writer

           D
You let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                      A
I'm gonna keep it for you

D                                   G
Oh, some people think you're quite amazing

                                    A
They heard you do your songs on radio

             D                             G
But somewhere in that sweet there's bitter tasting

            A
'Cause down deep inside, you know that somebody knows
CHORUS:
           D
You let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                        A
And you call yourself a writer

           D
You let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                      A
I'm gonna keep it for you

          D
I'm gonna play it out loud
I'm gonna do it one more time
          G
I'm gonna do it my show

           A
I want the world to know

       D
Oh, it just takes one night to make a reputation

       G                     A
Oh, it just takes one lie to break a heart

       D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing

               G
But you let me go

           D
I want the world to know, you let it go
INSTRUMENTAL: G A D G A
    D                                      G
So, let me pose this question while you're posing

                                 A
Let me wonder why, that's what I do

         D                               G
I saw you open your eyes while mine were closing

        A
Did you take it all down from your point of view
CHORUS:
                  D
Or did you let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                        A
And you call yourself a writer

           D
You let it go

                                 G
You let that line go, you let it go

                      A
I'm gonna keep it for you

          D
I'm gonna play it out loud
I'm gonna do it one more time
          G                A
I'm gonna do it my show
I want the world to know
        D
That it just takes one night to make a reputation

   G                     A
It just takes one lie to break a heart

       D
And it just takes one line to make a song sing

           G
You let me go

               D
And I want the world to know, you let it go
