Am
Here's the reason
C Em
It's the way that you are
G
But I'm letting it go
A
In this reason
Em G
I am learning in life
A
That I have no control
Am C
So I thought over time
Em
And made up my mind
G
To throw you a line
Am C
It's dead in your eyes
Em
And you don't reply
G
I'm wasting my time
A Em
Now I'm driving around
G
Playing back all the words
A
In my head that I should have been saying
C Am
I should have been strong
Em
I knew you were wrong
G A
But I just let you break me
[Chorus]
Am
Here's the reason
C Em
It's the way that you are
G
But I'm letting it go
A
C'est la vie
Em G
And cry salut, let it go
Em
Let him choose his own road
Am C
And you can push us out
Em
And you can do what you want
G
But you're on your own
A Em
And no one's listening
G
No one cares anymore
Em
Now you're all alone
[Verse 2]
Am C
So I thought over time
Em
And made up my mind
G
To throw you a line
Am C
It's dead in your eyes
Em
And you don't reply
G
I'm wasting my time
A Em
Now I'm driving around
Em G
Playing back all the words
A
In my head that I should have been saying
C Am
I should have been strong
Em
I knew you were wrong
G A
But I just let you break me
C
You lie
Em
You cheat
G
You steal
A
You hurt
[Chorus 2]
Am
Here's the reason
C Em
It's the way that you are
G
But I'm letting it go
A
In this season
Em G
I am learning in life
Em
That I have no control
Am C
And you can push us out
Em
And you can do what you want
G
But you're on your own
A Em
And no one's listening
G
No one cares anymore
Em G C (ring out)
Yeah we let you go
