*F can also be x3321x* *This song has two guitar parts.
It sounds like the guitar with the capo on 4th does the picking,
and the one with the capo on 2nd does the strumming, so take your pick.
Also, this song is in a weird tuning. I think it's maybe 1/4 step off
because my guitar is in tune with her other songs, but not this one.
So if you think it sounds wrong it's really not my fault, you'll have
to actually TUNE your guitar to the song (which sucks, I know)
or just know you're singing it slightly lower than the original song.*

    

                
  Why is it so hard, it was so long ago
                         
  I don't know where to start or what to say to you

                                  
 I've been all alone needing you by my side
                  
 But it's not too late, maybe we just needed time


                              
 Can we try to let it go, if we don't than we'll never know
                                                    
 I try to break through but you know that it's up to you


                              
 We say that time is meant to heal but it still hurts inside
                               
 I wish that none of this was real 'cause we're so far behind

                                     
 You've been all alone needing me by your side
                  
 But it's not too late, maybe we just needed time


                              
 Can we try to let it go, if we don't than we'll never know
                              
 I try to break through but you know that it's up to you

                                        
 And I know that our love can grow but this damn river needs to flow
                              
 I try to break through but you know that it's up to you


                                        
 It's time to make a stand, maybe it won't last
                          
 But we should take the chance, oh


                              
 Can we try to let it go, if we don't than we'll never know
                              
 I try to break through but you know that it's up to you

                                        
 And I know that our love can grow but this damn river needs to flow
                              
 I try to break through but you know that it's up to you


                                   
 I will try to break through but you know that it's up to you
                                   
 I will try to break through but you know that it's up to you
                                                     
 I will try to break through but you know that it's up to you

(the songs repeats and fades out, so I just end on D)
