INTRO: RIFF 1, RIFF 2

VERSE 1: RIFF 1 (REPEAT 4 TIMES)
Time passes by
Think about you every day
And why? I can't explain
You already broke my back
Why am I the one still hoping
(that) we can remain?

CHORUS:
D5       G5     A5
Holding on to you
( A5 )               D5
Is a menace to my soul
G5         A5
Don't you know
    D5       G5      A5
And letting go its true
( A5 )              D5
Is freedom still unknown
G5    A5
So I hold- I'm not letting go

RIFF 1, RIFF 2

VERSE 2: RIFF 1 (REPEAT 4 TIMES)
Do you think that giving up
Shows the courage you'd hope to put up
Why cant you stay?
All being fair in love and war
Why do you have to leave me here
to drift away?

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE:
A5             D5                          A5
White knuckled grip still you slip thru my hands
( A5 )
Leave me wanting more
A5 D5     A5
Oh so you wonder
A5       D5               A5
How much more can I take, how much more can I take
A5      D5          A5
Before, before I go under

A5 , D5 , A5

VERSE 3: RIFF 1 (REPEAT 2 TIMES)
Kiss me on the mouth
Maybe later you can figure out
What it all means

REPEAT CHORUS

OUTRO: (REPEAT 3 TIMES)
RIFF 1
I'm not letting go
