Capo 3

D  D/F#  G   D  D/F#  G


D      D/F#     G               D        D/F#  G
She'll take the painting in the hallway,
D   D/F#    G          D      D/F#  G
The one she did in jr. high
D   D/F#     G              D      D/F#  G
And that old lamp up in the attic,
D      D/F#      G              D   D/F#  G
She'll need some light to study by.
Em        A           D   D/F#  G
She's had 18 years to get ready for this day
Em            A               D   D/F#       G
She should be past the tears, she cries some anyway


Chorus:
D  A          D
Oh oh letting go
D       D/F#           G
There's nothing in the way now, 
A          D           D/F#           F#   ?
Oh letting go, there's room enough to fly
         Bm            Bm/A                 G         ??
And even though, she's spent her whole life waiting, 
           Bm   Em       G A       D  
It's never easy         letting go.


Mother sits down at the table
So many things she'd like to do
Spend more time out in the garden
Now she can get those books read too.
She's had 18 years to get ready for this day
She should be past the tears, she cries some anyway.
