[Verse 1]
G Fadd9 How many years? Twenty or more G Fadd9 Dedicated was I, indebted, indentured G Fadd9 Repairing the roof, washing the floor G Fadd9 I dreamt of the world, but I never ventured Am Em Chains round my ankles, locks on the door Dm Em G Gadd9 G The shackles that bound me don't any more
[Chorus]
C Am Cmaj7 Am In the end, I let it go C Am Cmaj7 Am Maybe it's best just let it go
[Post-Chorus]
| G | Fadd9 |
[Verse 2]
G Fadd9 Was I even good at this? I'm not even sure G Fadd9 I just did the job and kept my head down G Fadd9 I fooled myself thinking that my aims were pure G Fadd9 A full veil covered the face of a clown Am Em Hooked up to a plough, I tilled the earth Dm Em G Gadd9 G I buried a few and to some I gave birth
[Chorus]
C Am Cmaj7 Am In the end, I let it go C Am Cmaj7 Am Maybe it's best just let it go Fm6 Eb Cm Oh, the changes came fast but the torments were slow Eb Cm Eb Cm Let it go, let it go

[Verse 3]
G Fadd9 A person, a gender, a human soul G Fadd9 What kind of career miss the life in a cage G Fadd9 One day I could hear a distant bell toll G Fadd9 Without emotion, no joy, no rage Am Em I took just enough to see me well gone Dm Em G Gadd9 G My tiny space vacant, I left before dawn
[Chorus]
C Am Cmaj7 Am Oh, in the end, I let it go C Am Cmaj7 Am Maybe it's best just let it go Fm6 Eb Cm The changes were fast but the torments were slow Eb Cm Eb Cm Let it go, let it go Eb Cm Eb Cm I let it go, let it go Eb Cm Eb Cm Let it go, let it go Eb Cm Eb Cm Let it go, let it go
