Em
 Can't, can't, can't go
C
 Can't, can't, can't go
D
 Can't, can't, can't go
Em            Bm       Em
 Can't, can't, can't go


[Verse 1]
Em                      C                   D
  Can't live a day without you, baby, oh, no
               Em               Bm                Em
If you're not here I don't know what I'm living for
Em                       C                    D
  You stared right in my eyes and said "Go slow"
                   Em                 Bm                    Em
'Cause you've been hurt with that not once, but twice before


[Pre-Chorus]
Em                        C
I, I, I, I, I don't wanna fi-i-i-ight
                  D
You wanna say you trust me now
                    Em          Bm
But then you go and change your mind
Em                       C
Why, y, y, y do it every ti-i-i-ime
                D
Just because he hurt you bad, it's in the past
Em                    Bm
I just wanna love you right
              Em                    C
Then she said "Don't let go, 'cause I've been hurt before
       D                           Em             Bm
Said "I've been hurt before, yes, I've been hurt before
         Em                     C
So I said "Oh, no, no, no, no, I won't let you go
      D                      Em             Em*
No, I won't let you go. No, I can't let you go


[Chorus]
N.C.        Em
I can't let go, even if I tried
C
I can't, I can't sleep at night
D                                       Em      Bm
Swallow my pride and let it die, 'cause I, I can't let go
Em               C
Even if I tried, I can't, I can't sleep at night
   D                                   Em   Bm           Em
I, I can't, I can't say goodbye 'cause I, I can't let go


[Hook]
Em
 Can't, can't, can't go
C
 Can't, can't, can't go
D
 Can't, can't, can't go
Em            Bm       Em
 Can't, can't, can't go


[Verse 2]
Em                C                  D
  Nobody seems to understand why I stay
       Em                 Bm            Em
When I know you'll end up pushing me away
Em                   C            D
  You got me working overtime all day
            Em              Bm                 Em
And just to see that pretty smile upon your face


[Pre-Chorus]
Em                        C
I, I, I, I, I don't wanna fi-i-i-ight
                  D
You wanna say you trust me now
                    Em          Bm
But then you go and change your mind
Em                       C
Why, y, y, y do it every ti-i-i-ime
                D
Just because he hurt you bad, it's in the past
Em                    Bm
I just wanna love you right
              Em                    C
Then she said "Don't let go, 'cause I've been hurt before
       D                           Em             Bm
Said "I've been hurt before, yes, I've been hurt before
         Em                     C
So I said "Oh, no, no, no, no, I won't let you go
      D                      Em             Em*
No, I won't let you go. No, I can't let you go


[Chorus]
N.C.        Em
I can't let go, even if I tried
C
I can't, I can't sleep at night
D                                       Em      Bm

 Can't, can't, can't go

 Can't, can't, can't go
Em            Bm       Em
 Can't, can't, can't go


[Bridge]

  I can't let go
   C     D
Oh woah, woah
Em                    Bm
Can't let, can't let, can't let

            Em
I can't let go even if I tried

[Outro]
Em                   C                      D
  Can't live a day without you, baby, oh, no
              Em                 Bm                N.C.
If you're not here I don't know what I'm living for
