         G                        Em
 I got a letter from your lawyer, you got one from mine
           Am                              D
 they both say its gonna be final, once we sign that dotted line 
        G                                  Em
 Well I guess we'll get our freedom, and a so called fresh new start
          Am                                 D
 when you take half of everything, you'll be takin' half my heart 
 Am                            Em
 Our love got lost some where, in life's complications

 Off the record, there's somethin' I need to say to you
            Am                     D
 this ain't easy, but it's what my heart has to do
               G             Em 
 cause I can't let you go, until I let you know

 I took down our wedding picture, from above the fireplace
 Am                             D
 I stood there a while, staring at your pretty face 
 G                                  Em
 Have we lost our love, the differences we cant resolve
        Am                                D 
 but if push comes to shove, thank God no children are involved
 G                        Em
 I can still see you throwin' your rose boquet
 Am                                  D
 never thought I'd see the day, we'd throw it all away

 this ain't easy, but it's what my heart has to do
               G             Em 
 cause I can't let you go, until I let you know  
         Am7         D                  G
 off the record, I'm still in love with you
