Authors' note:

This is a new interpretation, based on a transcription originally
posted by Steven Kuo (mailto:skuo@galaxy.nsc.com).

We have gleaned some richer chords (major 9ths, etc...) from the
recording in a few places. Our chord syntax might not be completely
accurate, so we specify the chords at the end.

 Emaj9            G#m7        Amaj9                  Emaj9
 I thought it was over baby.  We said our goodbyes

 F#m6  G#7        C#m         B    E                     Amaj9
 But I can't go a day without your face going through my mind

 Amaj9(+B)              G#m7      Amaj9       Emaj9
      In fact not a single minute passes without you in it

 F#m6  G#7         C#m                B    E
 Your voice, your touch, memories of your love

                        Amaj9  Amaj9(+B)
 are with me all of the time

            C#m     B      A      G#7           C#m    B    A
 Let me let go baby.              Let me let go

    B               E                 G#7          C#m
 If this is for the best, why are you still in my heart,

         B           A      Am               Emaj9  Amaj9  Emaj9
 are you still in my soul?        Let me let go


                     G#m7        Amaj9           Emaj9
 I talked to you the other day.  Looks like you made your escape

 F#m6  G#7        C#m              B  E
 You put us behind.  No matter how I try, I can't do the same

               Amaj9   Amaj9(+B)
I can't do the same

 (Chorus)

             C#m     B      A      G#7           C#m   B    A
 Let me let go baby.               Let me let go

    B           E                G#7          C#m
 It just isn't right, I've been two thousand miles

         B          A    Amaj9(+B)
 Down a dead-end road.


             C#m     B      A            G#7         C#m   B   A
 Let me let go darling, won't you.  I've just got to know, yeah


    B                E                 G#7          C#m
 If this is for the best, why are you still in my heart,

          B           A     Am                 Emaj9
 are you still in my soul?        Let me let go


 D                           E
 The lights of this strange city are shining

     A               Am                G#m7
 But they don't hold no facination for me

                   C#m
 I try to find the bright side, baby

      F#m7               G#m7
 But everywhere I look, everywhere I turn

 A            B9sus4         Am(+B)
 You're all I see


 (Repeat chorus to end)...
