Verse:
E5                 C5
This boy wants to play
                       G5
There's no time left today
                        D5
It's a shame 'cause he has to go home
E5                 C5
This boy's got to work
                     G5                        D5
Got to sweat just to pay what he gets to get left all alone

Bridge:
A5                  C5
Well let's step outside
                G5
Let's go for a ride
              D5
Just for a while
A5                C5
No we won't get caught
                     G5                D5
Well that's what I thought, until we cried

Chorus:
G5
I'm still here
         B5
But it hasn't been easy
E5            C5
I'm sure that you had your reasons
G5          B5
I'm scared for this emotion
     C5                          A5
For years I've been holding it down
      C5
For years I've been holding it down

Verse 2:
E5                   C5
This girl tries her best everyday
          G5                               D5  
But it's all gone to waste 'cause there's no one around
E5                 C5
This girl she can draw she can paint
          G5
Likes to dance she can skate
         D5
Now she don't make a sound

Bridge:
A5                 C5
We'll play in the park
                 G5             D5
'Till it's too dark for us to see
A5                       C5
Well we'll make our way home
                  G5
With mud on our clothes
               D5
She won't be pleased

Chorus:
G5
I'm still here
         B5
But it hasn't been easy
E5            C5
I'm sure that you had your reasons
G5          B5
I'm scared for this emotion
      C5                        A5
For years I've been holding it down
        G5        B5
And I, love to forgive and forget
      E5         C5
So I, try to put all this behind us
       G5            B5
Just, know that my arms are wide open
C5                    A5             C5
The older I get, the more that I know
C5
Well it's time to let this go
D5
I got to let it go (x4)

[Play Chorus]


        G5        B5
And I, love to forgive and forget
      E5         C5
So I, try to put all this behind us
       G5            B5
Just, know that my arms are wide open
C5                    A5              C5
The older I get, the more that I know
C5                            G5
Well it's time to let this go
