[Intro 1]
[D][G]
[D][Em][D]
[C]

[Verse 1]
[G]There goes
my old girlfriend
[D]There's another diamond ring
And [Em]all those late night promises
[D]I gue[C]ss they don't mean a thing

[Verse 2]
So [G]baby, what's the story?
Did [D]you find another man?
Is [Em]it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
[D]When you don[C]'t look back
I guess the feelings start to fade [D]away

[Verse 3]
I [G]used to feel your fire
But now it's [Em]cold inside
[D]And you're bac[C]k on the street
Like you didn't miss a beat, [Bb]yeah!

[Verse 4]
Tell me what it takes to let you [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how the pain's
supposed to [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how it [A]is that you can
[Dm]sleep [C]in the night
Without [Bdim]thinking you lost
everything that was
Good in your [G]life to the
toss [Bdim]of the [Bb]dice?
Tell me what it [C#]takes to let [F]you go

[Verse 5]
[G]Girl, before I met you
[D]I was F- I- N- E, fine
But your [Em]love made me a prison[D]er
Yeah my [C]heart's been doing time
You [G]spent me up like money
Then [D]you hung me out to dry

[Verse 6]
It was [Em]easy to keep
All your lies in dis[D]guise
'Cause you [C]had me in deep

[Verse 7]
With the devil in your eyes
[Bb]Tell me what it takes
to let you [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how the pain's
supposed to [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how it [A]is that you can
[D]sleep [Dm]in t[C]he night
Without [Bdim]thinking you lost
everything that was
Good in your life to the
[G]toss [Bdim]of the [Bb]dice?
Tell me what it [Db]takes to let [F]you go
Guitar!
[C][D][Dm][Bb]

[Verse 8]
[C]
Tell me that you're happy that
you're on your [G]own[Bb]
Tell me that it's better when
you're all [F]alone[Fm]
Tell me that your body doesn't
[Eb]miss my [Db]touch
Tell me that my lovin' didn't
mean that [Ab]much
Tell me you ain't dyin' when
[C]you're cryin' [Bb]for me

[Verse 9]
Tell me what it takes to let you [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how the pain's
supposed to [F]go[Bb]
Tell me how it [A]is that you can
[D]sleep [Dm]in the n[C]ight
Without [Bdim]thinking you lost
everything that was
Good in your life to [G]the toss
[Bdim]of the d[Bb]ice?
Tell me who's to [Db]blame
for thinkin' [F]twice
No no no [Bb]no no

[Verse 10]
[Bbm]'Cause I don't wanna burn i[Db]n paradise
[F]Let go, [Dm]let go, let go
I don't wanna burn in paradise

[Verse 11]
Let it go, let it go, let it go [Bb]Let it go, let
it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go,
let it go (I don't wanna burn)
Let it go, [F]let it go, let it go (I don't wanna
burn) Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
