Whole Lot Of Lettin Go

G                     D
I felt the tug of the ties that bind
     C
As I crossed that city limit sign
G                 D
Drivin' past that school reminds me
   C                   D
Of what I had with her
G                   D
A lotta roads under neath these wheels
  C
A lotta wounds that time has healed
Em                         D
But time ain't changed the way I fell
C                 D
Or the way things were

[Chorus]
     C   G                D
I've let go chasin' those long ago dreams
C                        G
Turned the pages on some old memories
F                  C                     G       D
I've gotten over a lot of what I've been through
             C                      G
And I've let go of thinkin' I could ever go back
D                   C
Broke the chains to ghosts from my past
F                C                   D
When it comes to her one thing holds true
          C                    D                 G
There's a whole lot of lettin' go that's left to do

[Verse]
G                  D
I drove out to her family farm
        C
But the live oak trees and fields were gone
G                   D
Rows of houses with manicured lawns
C                      D
Sat staring back at me
G                         D
Just like the fire from a childhood flame
            C
Guess we're all just victims of the winds of change
Em                          D
The way things are, they're never the same
       C                   D
As the way things ought to be

[Chorus]
     C   G                D
I've let go chasin' those long ago dreams
C                        G
Turned the pages on some old memories
F                  C                     G       D
I've gotten over a lot of what I've been through
             C                      G
And I've let go of thinkin' I could ever go back
D                   C
Broke the chains to ghosts from my past
F                C                   D
When it comes to her one thing holds true
          C                    D                 G
There's a whole lot of lettin' go that's left to do

[Outro]
             C                      G
And I've let go of thinkin' I could ever go back
D                   C
Broke the chains to ghosts from my past
F                C                   D
When it comes to her one thing holds true
          C                    D                 G
There's a whole lot of lettin' go that's left to do
