Intro: G5 

     G5                          C5 
In a heartbroken town, you were lucky you found 
     D5               C5          G5  D5
True love - but that wasn't enough  
          G5                         C5
Your eyes started to stary, and you wandered away 
           D5                      C5          G5
Now you're worried, 'cause you've run out of love 
           A5          C5        D5
And as the night turns lonely and black 
          C5        C5                 C5           D5
You would trade your last day, just to find your way back 
C5     C5
Oh, but you 
      D5              G5
Can't get there from here 
              C5 C5
It is all within view 
   D5         G5
So painfully near 
            C5 C5
The saddest of truths 
    D5          E5
Has all become clear 
    D5               C5
The world you can't hold 
                   D5 D5
Is the one you let go 
C5     C5         D5              G5
Oh, and you can't get there from here 
G5 
 
        G5                          C5
Now the one you did wrong, took it hard and moved on 
          D5                      C5          G5    D5
'Till she found a heart that was honest and true  
        G5                            C5
You pretend you don't care, when you see her somewhere 
    D5                      C5        G5
A shine in the eyes of her somebody new 
        A5       C5          D5
While inside, it hurts you so much 
   C5          C5             C5            D5
To know you can look, but you know you can't touch 
C5        C5
Oh, 'cause you 
      D5              G5
Can't get there from here 
              C5 C5
It is all within view 
   D5         G5
So painfully near 
            C5 C5
The saddest of truths 
    D5          E5
Has all become clear 
    D5               C5
The world you can't hold 
                   D5 D5
Is the one you let go 
C5     C5         D5              G5
Oh, and you can't get there from here 
     B5                     C5
In a moment you can alter a lifetime 
    C5     C5                  G5             D5
And spend a lifetime trying to find your way back 
C5     C5
Oh, but you 
      D5              G5
Can't get there from here 
              C5 C5
It is all within view 
   D5         G5
So painfully near 
            C5 C5
The saddest of truths 
    D5          E5
Has all become clear 
    D5               C5
The world you can't hold 
                   D5 D5
Is the one you let go 
C5     C5         D5              G5
Oh, and you can't get there from here
