G G/F# G/F G/E
I never jumped in and rescued you
Cadd9
but I wanted to
G G/F# G/F G/E
I didn't tell you which way to go,
Cadd9 riff 2
'cause I thought you'd know
G G/F# G/F
You had a problem with your new-found
G/E Cadd9
wealth, you brought it on yourself
G G/F# G/F G/E Cadd9
I never told you I told you so, but I told you so
Chorus:
riff 1
Have to let it go
riff 2
It's time to let it go
G Em A D
Now I can't believe
G Em A D
It took so long to leave
G Em A D
Perhaps one day I'll grieve
Cadd9
Or I never will
riff 2
G G/F# G/F G/E
I never told you I agreed with you,
Cadd9
I don't think I do
G G/F# G/F
I wasn't sure quite what the whole thing
G/E Cadd9 riff 2
meant, but I'm glad you went
G G/F# G/F G/E
I never thought that it could be painless,
Cadd9
but it is I guess
G G/F# G/F G/E
I had myself fooled into needing you,
Cadd9
did I fool you too?
Chorus
Em G D A
A viral infection that can incubate for years
Em G D A
Caused by affection fallen deep into arrears
Em G D
No medication to procure
A D G
Makes me pure, there's no cure, I am sure
G G/F# G/F G/E
I never mentioned how I've prayed for you,
Cadd9
and now I've paid for you
G G/F# G/F G/E
I never said that I would wait for you,
Cadd9
it's too late for you
Chorus
