Intro
E  F#m  A  B  x2


F#m                                   E
He wondered how she'd take it when he said goodbye
F#m                                        E
Thought she might do some cryin, lose some sleep at night
    D                      E
but he had no idea when he hit the road
     D                             B
that without him in her life she'd let herself go


Chorus1
            E       F#m
let herself go on a singles cruise
   A                   B
to Vegas once, then to Honolulu
            E     F#m
let herself go to New York City
  A                         B
a week at the spa came back knocked out pretty
        A                          B
when he said he didn't love her no more
                E  F#m  A  B
she let herself go

F#m                                   E
she poured her heart and soul into their three bedroom ranch
F#m                                        E
spent her days raising babies, ironing his pants
D                      E
came home one day from the grocery store and found his note
     D                             B
and without him there to stop her she let herself go


Chorus2
            E       F#m
let herself go on her first blind date
   A                   B
had the time of her life with some friends at the lake
            E     F#m
let herself go buy a brand new car
        A                          B
drove down to the beach he always said was too far
                E  F#m  A  B
sand sure felt good between her toes


(Repeat Chorus1)

            E       F#m
let herself go on a singles cruise
   A                   B
to Vegas once, then to Honolulu
            E     F#m
New York City, came back knocked out pretty
