Capo 2 
 
       A5                        F#5  
Lonely sound of distant thunder stirs my restless sleep 
        D5                           E5 
And the dream that i was lost in slips away 
     A5                          F#5  
Of a young son and his mama, so innocent back then 
          D5                     E5 
Would she even recognize her boy today 
  

             F#5             E5 
Cause I have fought into the darkness 
                 D5                   E5 
And I've spilled blood, with these 2 hands 
          A5       F#5   
And in my heart I wish I could believe 
D5         E5         A5    E5 
Who I was, is who I am  
 
I've crossed mountains, hills, and valleys 

From sea to shining sea 

Barren sands to blinding snow 

I held my brother as he laid dieing 

Beside me in some field 

Said a prayer, and let him go 
 
Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
            A5               D5 
I'm letting go (i'm letting go) 
        A5               E5 
Letting go (i'm letting go) 
                 A5               D5         
Well i'm letting go (i'm letting go) 
        A5               E5 
Letting go (i'm letting go) 
 
 
Now with all my trials behind me 
I'm so blessed to cast my eyes 
On my family and my home 
And with faith i faced my demons 
When God was on our side 
All that's left, is letting go
