Letting You Go: Jason Robert Brown
/
Sweeping up plaster
/
Mopping the floor
/ /
Washing the windows
/
Cleaning the closets
/
Closing the door
Em11
Filling the cracks
Out in the hall
Em11
Scraping the paint
/
Off of the wall
(add4)
Changing the lock
Turning the key
Letting you go
/ /
Away from me
Knowing it’s better
/
Here in my head
/ /
Doing the laundry
/
Washing the dishes
/
Making the bed
Em11
Nothing to fight
Nothing to choose
Em11
Maybe it’s good
/
Learning to lose
Maybe I’ll shine
(add2)
Finally free
Letting you go
/
Away from me
Em11
If I were smart
(add2)
If I were strong
Em11
If I could just
/
Say I was wrong
Say it was me
(add2)
Say I could move
Make you believe
(add2)
These things improve
Could I forget
/
All of the cracks
Deep in the ground
/
Under our tracks
And if I could
()/
Then would you see
(add2)
Or would you go away
Em11
Would you go away
Em11
Facing the facts
(add2)
Watching the clock
Em11
Maybe you’ll change
Just down the block
And if you did
Where would I be?
Letting you go
/ / /
Away from me
