Introduction:
F
He's what I want
C Am
But I'm not what he needs
F G
He needs to wake up and look in the mirror
C Am
And like just what he sees
F
And it kills me
G
That I have to leave
C Am
To watch him go get better
F G
'Cause I'd set myself on fire
C Am
If it meant he'd come back after
F
Because I love him
G
I love him
C Am
That's why I'm letting him go
F G
I love him and I want him
C Am
But we both need time to grow
F G
And if the world was kind
C Am
I could make him stay
F G
It pains me to think of a girl
C Am
Who gets to trace his veins
F
I love him
G C
But it's better off this way
F
We had the best time
G
And he was all mine
C Am
And I never wanna leave
F
We'd stay up all night
G
And when he drifts off
C Am
I can't help but watch him sleep
F G
Oh he's so beautiful
C Am
And I tell him all the time
F G
I never said words more true
C Am
I'll stand by them untill I die, oh
F
I love him
G
I love him
C Am
That's why I'm letting him go
F G
I love him and I want him
C Am
But we both need time to grow
F G
And if the world was kind
C Am
I could make him stay
F G
It pains me to think of a girl
C Am
Who gets to trace his veins
F
I love him
G F G
But it's better off this way
C Am F G C Am
Oooh, mmhmm, mmhmm, hmmmm

So I have to let him go
F G
I love him and I want him
