              Intro C  Dm  G  C  G 
 
C 
Will I get my happy ending 
 
Will I get this off my chest 
Am7 
One chance is all I can get 
Am 
Two hands and nothing but sweat 
C 
Will I get my act together 
                      G 
Or keep fucking up my lines 
Am7 
One chance is all I can get 
               G 
I need to say it 
 
F 
'Cause when we're cheek to cheek 
     G 
It's behind my teeth 
C                           Dm 
I've been holding onto this too long 
                         G 
And it's slipping off my tongue 
                   C 
I'm losing control of 
 
   G                  C 
Oh I have to let this go 
               Dm 
What I've been afraid of 
                        G 
And it just might be my saviour 
           C 
How will I know if 
     G             C 
If I let you leave alone 
     Dm               G  C  G 
Oh I have to let this go 
 
C 
We have so much fun together 
 
Can't fix something that's not broke 
Am7  
So I smile and brush it all off 
Am 
Get stuck in all of these thoughts 
C 
Will you wonder why I'm stalling 
 
Do you want to say it too 
Am7  
Go ahead you'd probably do better 
   Am                G 
My head is struggling 
 
F 
'Cause when we're cheek to cheek 
     G 
It's behind my teeth 
C                           Dm 
I've been holding onto this too long 
                         G 
And it's slipping off my tongue 
                   C 
I'm losing control of 
   G                  C 
Oh I have to let this go 
 
               Dm 
What I've been afraid of 
                        G 
And it just might be my saviour 
           C 
How will I know if 
     G             C 
If I let you leave alone 
     Dm               G  C  G 
Oh I have to let this go 
 
Dm                  Am7 
I pray that I don't make 
     G       C           G 
The same mistakes I did before 
Dm7 
So I keep on waiting 
               Am7 
Don't know how to say it 
               C 
I hope I don't waste it 
              G 
Hope I let it go 
 
C                           Dm 
I've been holding onto this too long 
                         G 
And it's slipping off my tongue 
                   C 
I'm losing control of 
   G                  C 
Oh I have to let this go 
 
               Dm 
What I've been afraid of 
                        G 
And it just might be my saviour 
           C 
How will I know if 
     G             C 
If I let you leave alone 
     Dm               G  C  G 
Oh I have to let this go
