Intro: G 

     G                          C 
In a heartbroken town, you were lucky you found 
     D               C          G  D
True love - but that wasn't enough  
          G                         C
Your eyes started to stary, and you wandered away 
           D                      C          G
Now you're worried, 'cause you've run out of love 
           Am          C/B        D
And as the night turns lonely and black 
          C/B        C                 C/B           D
You would trade your last day, just to find your way back 
C/B     C
Oh, but you 
      D              G
Can't get there from here 
              C/B C
It is all within view 
   D         G
So painfully near 
            C/B C
The saddest of truths 
    D          Em
Has all become clear 
    D               C
The world you can't hold 
                   Dsus D
Is the one you let go 
C/B     C         D              G
Oh, and you can't get there from here 
G 
 
        G                          C
Now the one you did wrong, took it hard and moved on 
          D                      C          G    D
'Till she found a heart that was honest and true  
        G                            C
You pretend you don't care, when you see her somewhere 
    D                      C        G
A shine in the eyes of her somebody new 
        Am       C/B          D
While inside, it hurts you so much 
   C/B          C             C/B            D
To know you can look, but you know you can't touch 
C/B        C
Oh, 'cause you 
      D              G
Can't get there from here 
              C/B C
It is all within view 
   D         G
So painfully near 
            C/B C
The saddest of truths 
    D          Em
Has all become clear 
    D               C
The world you can't hold 
                   Dsus D
Is the one you let go 
C/B     C         D              G
Oh, and you can't get there from here 
     Bm                     C
In a moment you can alter a lifetime 
    C/B     C                  G             D
And spend a lifetime trying to find your way back 
C/B     C
Oh, but you 
      D              G
Can't get there from here 
              C/B C
It is all within view 
   D         G
So painfully near 
            C/B C
The saddest of truths 
    D          Em
Has all become clear 
    D               C
The world you can't hold 
                   Dsus D
Is the one you let go 
C/B     C         D              G
Oh, and you can't get there from here
