G D Cadd9 She sits alone by a lamp post, G trying to find a thought that’s escaped her mind D Cadd9 She says Dad’s the one I love the most G Michael Stipe’s not far behind D She never lets me in only tell me where’s she’s been Cadd9 G when she’s had too much to drink D I say that I don’t care I just run my hands through her dark hair Cadd9 G And I pray to God you gotta help me fly away, And just… CHORUS C G Let her cry…if the tears fall down like rain C Em G D Let her sing…if it eases all her pain C G Let her go… let her walk right out on me D And if the sun comes up tomorrow Cadd9 G Let her be… let her be. Interlude: G D Cadd9 G G D This morning I woke up alone, found a note standin' by the phone Cadd9 G saying maybe I’ll be back someday, I wanted to look for you D You walked in I didn’t know just what to do Cadd9 so I sat back down had a beer and a bottle of Jim Beam and G felt sorry for myself and just... -Chorus- Interlude: G D Cadd9 G D Cadd9 -Chorus- G D Last night I tried to leave She cried so much I just could not believe Cadd9 G she was the same girl I fell in love with long ago D She went in the back to get high I sat down on my couch and I cried Cadd9 for my mamma I said mamma please, G please won’t you take me outta here now, she said... -Chorus- -Chorus
